HP ALM is originally Mercury Test Director, its roots are in test management, integrations into automated testing (win runner, load runner, QTP).
Since HP bought Mercury its been rebranded and "enhanced" (that is debateable) HP Quality Centre into the ALM (application lifecycle management) space, covering Requirements, Change, Test etc. and as suggest is probably comparable to technologies such as Atlassian (Jira, etc), IBM Rational (RTC/RRC/RQM) etc. >From what I remember HP ALM doesn't operate any kind of SCM or build >capability other than integrating to other systems? Jenkins on the other hand is an "open source continuous integration server"; it provides a variety of facilities to run build jobs on one or more build servers/slaves, with a vast array of extensions in the shape of plugins. So, in theory it would plugin to HP ALM to provide the build capability. dD -----Original Message----- From: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Daniel Beck Sent: 13 August 2014 14:14 To: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: What are the difference between Jenkins and HP ALM?
