Tasktop continues to lead innovation around connecting task management activities with leading Agile ALM platforms
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 23 -- Tasktop Technologies (http://www.tasktop.com), creators of Eclipse Mylyn and a leading provider of task management for application lifecycle management (ALM), today announced Tasktop Pro 1.7, which builds on the release of Mylyn 3.4, the latest version of the most widely adopted ALM integration suite for the Eclipse IDE. The latest version of Tasktop Pro includes new and updated integration connectors with leading ALM platforms, enhancements for Windows 7 and integrations with Twitter for social media collaboration.
"With this latest release of Tasktop Pro we continue to extend the power of Mylyn's task management to leading Agile project management and ALM offerings," said Mik Kersten, CEO of Tasktop Technologies and creator of the open source Eclipse Mylyn project. "Tasktop Pro now provides integrations for nearly all of the leading Agile project tracking tools, and connects them seamlessly to open source solutions ranging from Bugzilla to SVN, as well as commercial collaboration technologies such as Microsoft Exchange and Twitter. Combined with the Helios releases of Eclipse and Mylyn, Tasktop has become the developer's single console for all programming, collaboration, and planning activities."
The latest version of Tasktop Pro 1.7 includes:
-- Additional Connectors and Integrations - new and updated integrations
include the Tasktop connectors for IBM Rational Team Concert and
ClearQuest, ScrumWorks Pro, and Bugzilla, and updated connectors are
now available for Rally and JIRA. Tasktop also now provides easy
installation of the recently released a connector for Perforce.
-- Enhancements for Windows 7 - including server synchronization progress
monitoring and access to frequently used functionality from the
windows task bar.
-- Twitter Integration - for broadcasting the active task and viewing
tweets related to a task, useful for social collaboration and
awareness in community-driven development, such as open source
projects.
-- Improved Installation - all Tasktop Certified connectors can now be
installed from the centralized dashboard.
-- Task List Upgrade - new presentation upgrades provide enhanced team
awareness and communication when working with large task lists.
Tasktop created its task management tools to help developers be more productive by making it effortless for them to organize their work around tasks and automatically present the most relevant source code and project management information associated with each task. The end result is that developers no longer have to waste time repeatedly searching and scrolling for the information they need to write code, since the IDE shows only the information relevant to the task-at-hand. One-click multitasking allows the developer to minimize the impact of interruptions by instantly recalling relevant information needed to complete specific tasks.
