Eclipse and Visual Studio Integration Brings SpiraTeam to Your IDE
Inflectra Corporation today announced that it has released Add-Ins for the popular Eclipse and
Visual Studio Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) so that developers in languages such as
C#, Java and Visual Basic can manage their assigned SpiraTeam requirements, tasks and
issues/bugs in one environment.
Silver Spring, MD, May 14, 2010 --(PR.com)-- One of the challenges facing organizations today, is the
need to reduce the number of disparate systems and interfaces that people have to use to manage their
software lifecycles. With SpiraTeam, organizations can migrate away from old fashioned, stove-piped
separate requirements, quality assurance, software testing, project management and bug tracking systems
into an integrated web-based lifecycle management system.
Such a seamless web-based environment provides a superb interface for business analysts, testers,
managers and executives. However, developers responsible for developing the software code typically
need to work in powerful IDEs that are appropriate to the type of the software being developed. Therefore
to maximize efficiency and improve productivity, developers can now access their SpiraTeam
information directly within their existing IDE.
For Visual Studio, there is an Add-In that snaps into the existing Solution Explorer, adding a project
explorer that displays the assigned requirements, tasks and incidents. You can open up any of the artifacts
in the main viewing pane and act on them accordingly. For Eclipse users, we have used the Mylyn
task-focused interface to deliver SpiraTeam information directly into the Mylyn task repository so that
using SpiraTeam is as familiar as any other part of the Eclipse environment.
SpiraTest® is a powerful Requirements and Test Management solution that manages a software project's
requirements, scope, use-cases, tests, releases and bugs and issues in one environment, with complete
requirements traceability throughout. Customers can track every bug or
