Description

ALM Octane/ValueEdge is a comprehensive lifecycle management solution focused on enhancing the speed, quality, and scale of delivering software for organizations adopting Lean, Agile, and DevOps delivery practice. As enterprises shift to a more rapid application delivery, ALM Octane provides the robust enterprise capabilities to meet that need. For more details and trial of ALM Octane, please check out ALM Octane.

If you plan to use ALM Octane or if you are already using it, Shift is the automated migration tool that allows you to migrate part or all of your current projects' data from ALM/QC (including UFT Tests), Silk Central and Jira (including Xray test management data) into ALM Octane and ValueEdge.

OpenText offers various migration services to ALM Octane and ValueEdge:

  • End-to-end migration service through Professional Services
  • End-to-end migration service through Partners
  • Assisted migration service through the ALM Octane CFRD team

As the migration from ALM/QC, Silk Central and Jira to ALM Octane or ValueEdge is not just about the data itself but it includes other aspects, such as customization and workflow, there is some preparation to be done before the actual data migration should start. This page will provide you with the information needed to get started and our ALM Octane Customer-Facing R&D team is ready to assist you throughout the migration process including planning, guidance on Shift usage, running a data migration POC on a project you select, troubleshooting, assisting with the production migration. Just reach out by sending an email to your account manager or to go.octane@microfocus.com!
