Highlights of CollabNet TeamForge 5.4

What's new in TeamForge 5.4?

TeamForge 5.4 expands the power and usability of the groundbreaking agile project management toolset delivered in TeamForge 5.3.

Sequence artifacts within a family of planning folders.

You can drag and drop artifacts, with their children, into the order you want.

Set status on a planning folder.

You can define and set the status of a planning folder to track where it is in the development lifecycle. You can create your own statuses or use the built-in ones.

Set and measure capacity on a planning folder.

You can set and display the capacity of a planning folder, to help allocate resources more effectively. (Check out the new capacity chart showing the capacity value compared with estimated and remaining effort.)

Move source code repositories across projects

You can use the GUI or a SOAP client to move a Subversion repository from one project to another.

Integrate external applications

You can add a separate application that works with TeamForge as if it were a native TeamForge tool. (This feature is in alpha status.)

Change display order of trackers.

You can organize the display order of trackers in all tracker views, using drag and drop.

Use story points for agile planning.

You can use the configurable "Story points" field to support traditional agile estimating practice.

Link a planning folder to a file release.

You can associate any planning folder with a file release, and see artifacts that are planned for that file release in the file release view.

Toggle visibility of planning folders based on status.

You can show or hide planning folders based on their status, so you can get folders out of the way when they are finished or not ready to work on yet.

Column configuration improvements in all views, including planning folders.

You can save a default column view for yourself or for your project.

Sort on multiple columns in all tables.

You can sort by a first, second and third column for all list and tree views in TeamForge.

Export artifacts from planning folders.

You can export artifacts from a planning folder view, so that you can assemble exports by release, sprint, etc.

Project page component for tracker charts.

You can add Burndown, Open vs. Closed, and Open by Priority charts from any tracker or planning folder as a project page component, to create a dashboard of useful charts for your project.

Improved drop-downs for "Reported in" and "Fixed in."

The "Reported in" and "Fixed in" fields in a tracker show package information for each file release, as well as grouping releases by package.
