Rational Team Concert Plugin Released for SpiraTeam

10-Jul-2012 by Adam Sandman Product News

We have just released a free plugin for IBM Rational Team Concert (RTC). This allows SpiraTest, SpiraPlan or SpiraTeam to synchronize logged defects with RTC. Now you can connect our award winning ALM suite to your existing RTC instance and have all your information in one place.

The plugin for RTC uses the built-in data synchronization capability of SpiraTeam to allow incidents logged in SpiraTeam to be added as new work items in RTC and vice-versa. In addition, any changes made to a previously-synchronized work item in RTC will be updated accordingly in SpiraTeam.
