codebeamer 21.04-final - Release Notes

Released on 30-th April 2021

Experimental features

• Branching of individual trackers has been replaced with Working-Sets. This feature is considered experimental as the formal testing has not yet been completed. If you are dependent on branching to work productively we recommend to either verify your use cases extensively or delay the update to 21.04 until Working-Sets have been announced as a production-ready feature which we expect to happen in the next weeks. We will update this note accordingly as soon as we consider Working-Sets production ready.
• Significant efforts were investigated into Project configuration (horizontal) Deployment however this feature depends very strongly on the project configuration data (templates) available for Intland thus it is strongly recommended validating Project Deployment with customer data before using it in production.
