Breaking Down Barriers: Achieving Seamless ALM Tools Integration
Swapnil Kognole
Abstract: Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) in modern IT environments involves usage of diverse ALM tools and associated processes, data and updated across various stages of application lifecycle from planning to maintenance. This article provides information on the journey to achieve seamless integration amongst these tools to enhance collaboration and operational efficiency. The integration process involves evaluating integration choices such as considering inbuilt integration features offered, APIs, third-party tools, and middleware platforms, etc. Key considerations include cost/benefit analysis, technical feasibility, platform support, security and scalability. Benefits and limitations of integrating ALM tools are covered to conclude the article. In support of these benefits, research indicates that integrating Jira with additional plugins can lead to significant improvements. For example, Mittal & Poonam (2020) found that organizations using Jira plugins for automation and test management observed a 22% increase in software quality and a 17% increase in application deployment frequency. These improvements align with the benefits of seamless ALM integration discussed here.
