Join the Vivit Worldwide channel for unbiased, trusted, and field-tested best practices on Micro Focus Software products and solutions. You’ll also be able to hear from thought-leaders from around the world to help you tune in your day-to-day life to what will be happening in IT in the years ahead.

This webinar is brought to you by the Vivit Testing, Quality, and Application Lifecycle Management (TQA) Special Interest Group (SIG).

In today’s world of software development and IT, there is a continuous race between agility and quality. In many cases when agility wins, the result is a faster delivery with lower quality. That's why it's more important than ever to enable automation of the delivery processes in your pipeline environments. Using standardized methods will increase both the speed and quality of application releases. 

Micro Focus ALM Octane enables you to deliver high quality products in an agile world, seamlessly integrating with your Agile and DevOps processes and tool chain.

Watch this live demo and:

•     Learn what's new in ALM Octane and how to use ALM Octane to accelerate test cycles and launch test automation initiatives
•     Discover how to use existing resources when converting to Agile
•     Learn how to improve the quality and security of your deployments by using deployment automation to set up governance and stage gates in specific environments

DevOps with ALM Octane

This webinar is brought to you by the Vivit Project and Portfolio Management (PPM) Special Interest Group (SIG). 

Whether you’re using waterfall, agile, or some of each, you need to be able to assign work, track progress, and make adjustments as needed. In this webinar, we’ll go over the new Team Management features in Micro Focus Product and Portfolio Management (PPM) and discuss how they fit into your existing Resource Management practice. You’ll see how the features work, hear about real use-cases, and learn:

•How to track capacity across multiple teams and projects
•How to check that you have the right roles filled for upcoming needs
•The best way to make sure you have the right balance for your strategic initiatives

Keys to Successful Team Management in Micro Focus Project and Portfolio Manageme

This webinar is brought to you by the Vivit Application Performance Management (APM) Special Interest Group. 
Monitoring as code really is an aspect of what we term “Build to Run” where Ops works with Dev on ensuring what is being built is manageable in a production environment. This sounds natural on the face of it but really is hindered by a lot of broken siloed processes. In this webinar, our speakers will present a view on how Ops should become a business partner to development, how development needs to code towards requirements made by ops, and finally we will look at how that can be done in practice.

Join us to learn about:

•How a DevOps team sets up the monitoring
•The catalog they interface with to get the monitoring set up
•What goes on behind the scenes to make this happen

Integrating ITOM Into DevOps Toolchains - Monitoring as Code

Your infrastructure may need to be upgraded at some point in time. While doing so, you may encounter some rather perplexing obstacles that you have never come across. Learn how to overcome some of these pitfalls to help move your Micro Focus COBOL into the modern age.

•See how scripting can impact your code
•Get some ideas on how to manage the performance of your system/code

Lessons Learned: Moving from Net Express to Visual COBOL

For many organizations today, ALM Octane provides the single source of truth for distributed teams. Its scalable test management keeps testers and developers synchronized with granular analysis of testing progress and results, all integrated into CI/CD pipelines and agile methodologies. However, the quality of this testing remains dependent on the quality of the tests fed in and assigned to testers. Testing speed furthermore remains limited by the efficiency of that test creation. Manual, unsystematic test design and a reliance on low-coverage production data will still lead to low coverage tests. Those tests will also remain impossible to maintain in tight iterations, leaving new releases further exposed to damaging bugs. Impeccable test management instead deserves impeccable test design.

This webinar will demonstrate how model-based test generation seamlessly maintains optimized test cases and data in ALM Octane, all linked to system requirements and automation frameworks for in-sprint maintenance and test execution. You will discover a requirements-driven approach to test maintenance, in which test cases, scripts and data are maintained as quick-to-build flowcharts are updated. Powerful mathematical algorithms generate the smallest set of tests needed to “cover” the latest system logic, with “just in time” data allocation to ensure that every test has valid test data. Pushing the tests to integrated automation frameworks enables truly “Continuous Testing”, with granular run results synchronized automatically in ALM Octane.
