Using external reporting and OLAP tools, query the datamart directly and generate reports. The database schema diagrams provide the means to create advanced query scripts to extract required information from the datamart.
Create associations between code commits and other Digital.ai TeamForge items, such as tracker artifacts or documents, to help define relationships, track dependencies, and enforce workflow rules.
You can connect tracker artifacts with other Digital.ai TeamForge items such as documents or topics. Creating associations between items enables you to define relationships, track dependencies, and enforce work flow rules.
To protect the security of your TeamForge account, change the password regularly.
Recent command history for a replica server or a specific repository allows you to check for errors and see whether there are pending commands.
You can use the checkout command to check out the code from Subversion or GIT repository.
Save effort in duplicating a tracker artifact within the project and across projects by cloning artifacts in TeamForge.
The TeamForge Wiki allows you to create an unlimited number of Wiki pages in each TeamForge project. A Wiki page is a tool for managing project information as unstructured, linkable content.
Each project can have one or more source code repositories. Before you can create a source code repository, a site administrator must first add one or more SCM servers to the Digital.ai TeamForge environment.
To organize your work with tracker artifacts, you can make an artifact a child or a parent of another artifact.
You can create a tracker artifact whenever you need to report and track a bug, feature request, support request, or other type of issue. You can also create a tracker artifact without logging into TeamForge just by sending an email to the tracker.
You can customize your reports by modifying the parameters in config.ini file. For example, some reports require a particular data source such as datamart and some require a particular license type such as ALM.
When you delete a repository, a request is submitted to the administrator for approval.
Updating the information in tracker artifacts is one important way that project members can work together effectively.
To use the contents of artifacts from a tracker or a planning folder in other applications, export them to a CSV, XML, Excel or tab-delimited file.
These are some of the frequently asked questions on projects.
When a large number of tracker artifacts makes it difficult to find the one you want, filter and sort the list to narrow down the possibilities.
If the filter returns too many results or not enough, try the search facility. The Tracker contains a comprehensive search system that enables you to find a specific artifact or set of artifacts quickly.
Browse TeamForge to find the code you want to work on, then check out the code.
From its 17.8 release, when you create or update an artifact, TeamForge sends HTML emails to users assigned to and users monitoring that artifact.
External public Git repositories can now be imported into TeamForge from the Code Browser UI.
You can now import artifacts into TeamForge using the Excel/CSV tracker import function. Data from both Excel and CSV files can be imported.
To create, store, and share work on a Digital.ai TeamForge site, first join a project.
When you want to search for TeamForge objects such as tracker artifacts or documents, you can quickly search using a unique identifier or a keyword or you can perform an advanced search.
Include custom object IDs in your commit messages and have them automatically converted to hyperlinks. This is possible if you set up custom object ID mapping for the repository.
The Team feature, as the name implies, enables you to create logical groups of team members to carry out project activities more efficiently in an agile environment. Using the Team list view, you can create, edit, delete and view teams at the project level.
You may often want to apply a specific set of policies to more than one repository. You can just select multiple repositories within a project and apply your policies in one go.
When you monitor an item, such as a task or a document, you are notified by email when that item is updated. You can also monitor a discussion forum or project news by subscribing to its Really Simple Syndication (RSS) feed.
As work proceeds on a tracker artifact, its focus may change. If this happens, it may be appropriate to move the artifact into a different tracker, or to a tracker in a different project.
To help get started on collaborating with other project members, you can provide some information about yourself.
Your My Workspace is a personal workspace that offers a handful of configurable widgets such as My Recent Projects, My Recent Repositories, Git Code Reviews, Project News and so on. You can use these widgets to view recent projects, recent repositories, recent commits, items assigned to you (TeamForge artifacts and document reviews), Git code reviews, project news, reports and more.
This topic discusses quality gates and review rules from an administrator perspective. It also discusses some of the known issues with the project level `rules.pl` file and how to work around them.
When a Subversion Edge replica has been successfully registered with a TeamForge SCM integration server, it is available to project administrators in projects using that server to house repositories. To replicate a Subversion repository, you need to add it to a replica server.
Generate a report to get a snapshot of what is going on in a project. You can generate reports on data stored in both TeamForge's production (operational) database or datamart. Datamart, also known as the Reporting database, is build by extracting, transforming and loading (ETL) TeamForge's production data to a separate database (datamart) at regular intervals.
TeamForge provides a unified code review experience as it supports both Pull Request and Gerrit single-commit reviews.
Run a report to get fresh data on the status of your project.
To plan how and when an artifact is to be addressed, assign it to a planning folder.
Integration with Black Duck Code Sight (BDCS) is no longer supported in TeamForge 17.1 and later. TeamForge 17.1 (and later) is equipped with its own code search function powered by Elasticsearch. You can do away with BDCS integration while upgrading to TeamForg 17.1 (and later) and set up TeamForge Code Search, which is now one of the integral services of TeamForge. This section discussions the features of TeamForge Code Search and what it takes to set up Code Search on your site.
Regular project news announcements help members stay in touch with events that can affect their work on the project.
The Team view in Planning Board provides an option to filter artifacts for a specific team within the selected planning folder.
The Team view in Task Board provides an option to filter backlog items for a specific team within the selected planning folder.
TeamForge ETL jobs can extract transform and load the TeamForge tracker association data to the datamart for reporting purposes.
You can now be able to unmonitor any artifact right from the HTML emails that you receive whenever you create or update any artifact.
After the kanban board is configured, you can use it to view, plan and track work items for the selected planning folder or the selected team within that planning folder.
During a sprint, TeamForge project members can use the Task Board to view tasks, create tasks for backlog items, edit tasks and drag and drop tasks across swimlanes as they progress.
The `UserFilter` removal from the Quality Gates is a direct outcome of the removal of the `current_user` predicate from the open source Gerrit.
To stay up to date with code development on a project, browse the code commits made to each repository integrated into your TeamForge site.
You can use special wiki text markup to do a wide variety of cool and useful things on TeamForge wiki pages.
In the Planning Board, artifact cards are displayed in ranked sequence within each swim lane. Using Planning Board, you can quickly add new cards (quick add), edit cards, move cards within a swimlane to rank them and move cards between swim lanes to reassign them to other planning folders.
For Subversion and Git repositories, you have the option to use the TeamForge code browser which is turned on by default while integrating the source code server.
The Documents List page brings you document management functions to ensure a better document management experience.
