ThoughtWorks Studios to Demo Mingle Integration With Google Wave for Agile ALM
SAN FRANCISCO, November 4 /PRNewswire/ --
- Keynote presentation at Enterprise 2.0 conference illustrates how
Google Wave can help transform IT management and Agile software development
collaboration
Enterprise 2.0 Conference -- ThoughtWorks Studios, a global leader in
Agile ALM tools and training, will demonstrate today an integration between
its Mingle project management tool and Google Wave. Google and ThoughtWorks
Studios will show how the two products can be used to improve IT
collaboration and software development productivity with a joint
demonstration during today's keynote session at the Enterprise 2.0
conference.
"The Mingle integration with Google Wave demonstrates how Wave can
improve IT productivity by enabling a new level of collaboration between
enterprise software developers and the end customers using these services,"
said Gregory D'Alesandre, product manager, Google Wave.
The demonstration shows a number of ways software development
organizations can use Mingle to add structure and metadata to conversations
in Google Wave. Users can create new Mingle artifacts by selecting simple
text in Google Wave. They can also view and interact with Mingle card data
automatically, and they can see which conversations in Google Wave reference
specific cards in Mingle.
"One of the core principles of Agile software development is improved
collaboration and efficiency, and the integration of Mingle with Google Wave
offers a great example of how enterprise IT can use the technology," said
Chad Wathington, vice president, product development at ThoughtWorks Studios.
"Having a rich graphical environment to share and update data as it relates
to the entire software development lifecycle certainly aligns with our
strategy to offer an adaptive, flexible Agile ALM solution that leapfrogs
traditional methods for planning, building and deploying great software
faster and with more accuracy."
