What is TeamForge Lab Management?

CollabNet Centralized Unified Build, Integration, and Test (TeamForge Lab Management) is an integrated development environment with centralized control of code repositories, build systems and test systems.

CollabNet TeamForge gives you overall management, control and traceability of the software delivery process from code through production in an integrated code, build and test solution.

TeamForge Lab Management helps you leverage an integrated solution to help ensure consistent product quality, improve team productivity and achieve sustainable compliance management.

You can use the graphical user interface to dynamically allocate one or more nodes to projects, and have each node immediately provisioned with one of many standard profiles. You can also use custom profiles from customers and other third parties.

You can access nodes from their native access protocols such as SSH, WebDAV, SFTP and other widely used and secure protocols.

Highlights

Automate artifact management and maintain versioned build artifacts
Add managed build and test assets to a pool and allocate them to projects using a simple interface
Tool and process agnostic: Use your existing build software and procedures, or any other build software you might want to deploy
Leverage cross-platform target support for RedHat Linux, Sun Solaris and Microsoft Windows
Mix and match platforms, OS, tool sets, etc. with standard and user-defined profiles accessible through a simple user interface
Use multiple build and test profiles tailored by your project team through secure connections (SSH and/or VPN)
Import and export operating system profiles to and from CollabNet TeamForge or CollabNet TeamForge , making it a natural extension of your existing build environments
Log into nodes with integrated authentication, roles and permissions from CollabNet TeamForge or CollabNet TeamForge
Maintain secure command-line interfaces to globally distributed build and test assets
Provision new boxes to a project: The user can allocate either a Virtual Host (physical machine) or multiple Virtual Guests (virtual machines living inside the physical machine)
