Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Atlassian, Nutanix and others in Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) Suites."The solution is fast and very accessible."
"The initial setup and configuration are straightforward and relatively simple."
"It allows us to easily make linkage and dependencies, with plenty of integrations."
"Produces good reports and has a great traceability feature."
"I love linking/associating the requirements to a test case. That's where I get to know my requirement coverage, which helps a lot at a practical level. So, we use the traceability and visibility features a lot. This helps us to understand if there are any requirements not linked to any test case, thus not getting tested at all. That missing link is always very visible, which helps us to create our requirement traceability matrix and maintain it in a dynamic way. Even with changing requirements, we can keep on changing or updating the tool."
"Cross project customization through template really helps to maintain standards with respect to fields, workflows throughout the available projects."
"By standardizing our template, we publish reports at the business unit level."
"The product can scale."
"Having the links maintained within the tool is a huge boon to reporting requirements, tests, and defects."
"The execution module and the test planning module are definitely the most valuable features. The rest we use for traceability, but those are the two modules that I cannot live without."
"It would be great if they worked more closely with other solutions. There needs to be better integration with the platform for development purposes."
"They need to continue improving the interface with the third-party options."
"We operate in Sweden, and there are not so many Swedish people that know the product."
"Client-side ActiveX with patch upgrades"
"When it came to JIRA and Agile adoption, that was not really easy to do with ALM. I tried, but I was not able to do much on that... There is room for improvement in the way it connects to and handles Agile projects."
"There were multiple modules and stuff to the solution so maybe the requirements can map to test scripts. It can't map to test steps. If you've got a process that's set up and you've got multiple test scripts that are in it, each script has to be linked to the requirement and the whole set can't be. If we're doing process-driven testing, it's more difficult to do it at the script level, which is what we're finding from a traceability perspective."
"HPE ALM’s out-of-the-box reporting can be perceived as rigid and limited, to an extent."
"I'd like to be able to improve how our QA department uses the tool, by getting better educational resources, documentation to help with competencies for my testers."
"The integration could be improved because with Agile technology you are working more quickly than with a top-down methodology."
"The performance could be faster."
