  • Comparative Analysis of SCM Tools and Coexistence with Agile Methodology
    Comparative Analysis of SCM tools and Coexistence with Agile Methodology Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the award of degree of Master of Engineering in Computer Science and Engineering Submitted By Satyam Gupta (801332022) Under the supervision of: Dr. (Mrs.) Rinkle Rani Assistant Professor COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT THAPAR UNIVERSITY PATIALA – 147004 July 2015 Training Certificate i ii Abstract Now days there are huge evolvement in the field of IT, where people can control and manage their software development according to their need or requirement. The IT organizations need to produce quality product with the most economical and timely efficient way. To achieve this goal there are requirement of various software disciplines collaboration, Software Configuration Management (SCM) is one of the important discipline. With the help of SCM developers can manage different software artifacts. SCM is a tool based approach; SCM tools provide a great interface to reduce developer overhead. Various tools are available in the market. All these tools have their own functionality and capability. The involvement of Agile Methodology has facilitated developers to manage the product cycle timely and the use of SCM has made the management easier. This thesis explains two case studies; in the first part practical and relevant comparison among three Software Configuration Management tools namely Clearcase, Subversion and GIT has been done. The second part explains the coexistence of Agile and SCM practices which is usually considered as irrational. The research also focuses on the benefits from the user point of view and its role in improving the organizational capability.

  • Reasons to Switch from Visual Sourcesafe to Sourceanywhere
    Standalone PRESENTS... Reasons to Switch from SourceSafe: How to Make Your Life Easier with SourceAnywhere Standalone Most developers are familiar with Visual SourceSafe. It's a popular version control tool for the Windows platform that offers essential version control features and helps pro- mote team collaboration. While Visual SourceSafe (VSS) does some things well, it's not optimized for remote access and hampers developer productivity because it can be so slow. It also lacks critical security features, suffers from stability issues, and doesn’t support multiple platforms. Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere Standalone is a version control solution designed to replace VSS. It's a SQL-based application that offers all the functionality of VSS, plus a variety of additional features that make it a more comprehensive, reliable solution for software development teams. This white paper offers an overview of why SourceAnywhere Standalone is a better choice than VSS for: • System Administrators • Developers • Web Developers 10 Ways to Make Your System Administrator's Life Better Promise Painless Installation SourceAnywhere Standalone has very low system dependency. That means it doesn't need a framework, virtual machine runtime or web server to run. Your System Adminis- trator will be able to get SourceAnywhere Standalone up and running in your organiza- tion in a matter of minutes. Copyright © 2007 Dynamsoft. All Rights Reserved. Page 1 of 7 Offer Effortless Backup All your data is stored in SQL Server, with the exception of SourceAnywhere Standalone's service configuration and SQL Server connection parameters. This makes backup a snap. Simply use your favorite SQL Server backup tool, or you can write a script in SQL Server for automatic backup.

  • Open Source Version Control Software
    DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING Vili Seppänen Open Source Version Control Software Bachelor’s Thesis Degree Programme in Computer Science and Engineering March 2015 Seppänen V. (2015) Open Source Version Control Software. University of Oulu, Department of Computer Science and Engineering. Bachelor’s Thesis, 22 p. ABSTRACT The environment around open source version control software is very opinionated and therefore it is hard to find unbiased comparison between different open source version control software. This Bachelor’s thesis provides background and covers the basics of version control systems. Thesis also categorizes and differentiates the main types of version control systems, by investigating the way they handle repositories and by categorizing them to centralized and distributed. Finally, this thesis provides the unbiased technical comparison of the selected open source version control software and a way to map a suitable one for a software project. Comparison of technical details is collected into tables for easy interpretation and the main differentiators are explained more carefully. Mapping is achieved by pairing the major characteristics of different software projects with the technical features of version control systems and then with version control software that best supports these specific features. Pairing of the software project and the version control software is further refined with technical details that are not covered by the needs of major characteristics of the software project. Selection of the open source version control software is restricted to the four most popular ones. Keywords: CVS, Subversion, Git, Mercurial Seppänen V.
