About this title

Synopsis

In software development, change is inevitable. Successful projects deal well with change -- increasingly, through the use of sophisticated Software Configuration Management (SCM) tools and techniques. Now, there's a complete guide to both the SCM discipline and the field's #1 tool, Rational ClearCaseA (R). Software Configuration Management Strategies and Rational ClearCaseA (R) covers every aspect of implementing SCM with ClearCase, demonstrating exactly how to use these tools to avoid cost overruns, stay on schedule, and enhance software quality. Brian White begins by introducing the motivation for Software Configuration Management, its key concepts, and how SCM tools can be applied to address the challenges encountered as software projects grow in size and complexity. White walks through establishing an initial SCM environment, managing projects with ClearCase, and understanding the iterative ClearCase process of "integration, build test, and baseline." Readers will learn how to use Rational ClearCase to address today's most widespread software management challenges, from defect tracking, to managing geographically distributed teams, to deploying powerful Web applications more quickly.
