Have you ever thoght about ALM?

First of all ALM stands for APPLICATION LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT.
There are some (not many) softwares that will help you to implement ALM in your company.
But there's one wich I consider one of the most handy ones, CRUISE CONTROL .NET, or CCNET, as it is known.

But what exactly do we do with CCNET? Build applications, that's what CCNET is for. Just that? No.
You can organize, schedule and decide when to build the application (but when I say "you", I mean the CCNET). What you accomplish with CCNET is the automation of your builds, that's it.
Do you wanna an example?

Here it is:

Is it difficult to install and implement? Not really. Maybe, in the near future, I'll write a tutorial explaining step by step how to setup CCNET.


You can find more details about the applicaiton here

Is it the best solution when it comes to ALM? No. But it's free! And it's a pretty honest application.
I have been using CCNET for years and it never let me down.
If you are short of money and you need a decent ALM software, CCNET is your best choice.
See you!
