Online Webinar – By AccuRev
Duration: 47 Min 0.75 Category C PDU – Free PDU

Software configuration management (SCM) systems are at the heart of development efforts. Teams use their SCM tool to artifact important work, integrate changes, save important ideas, and add features.

However, simply utilizing an SCM tool across a development team is not enough. An SCM tool and the development team using it must encompass a set of best practices in order to manage common complexities such as parallel projects, differing methodologies (such as Agile and non-Agile methods), and frequent releases.

In this webinar, AccuRev’s Chris Lucca (LinkedIn profile) will share his collection of development best practices, as observed across hundreds of software development teams.

He highlights how teams should:

  • Integrate issue tracking and code changes for process scalability
  • Create a process standard that can be repeated and measured
  • Scale multiple SCM workflows to distributed teams for virtual co-location

The latest releases of Microsoft SharePoint 2010 and Project Desktop 2010 were launched over 16 months ago, with many of the features required for managing work and projects.

Microsoft Project Professional 2010 has been widely acclaimed as the best ever release of Microsoft Project. SharePoint is considered by many to be the de facto industry standard platform for collaboration.

Microsoft SharePoint 2010 now has a template for managing a project and also has a list that synchronizes with Microsoft Project, so it is clear the SharePoint team is encouraging us to use SharePoint to manage work and projects.

Listen while Éamonn McGuinness (LinkedIn profile) CEO of BrightWork describes how.
