32 SUMMARY Pros Another gap in ALM with TFS closed Powerful tool Full traceability Not fully integrated, yet Some difficulties in detail Cons Good starting point Deploy to production might not be suitable for all customers 37

33 ADDITIONAL TOPICS Outlook: Security concept Execute tests with Release Management Configuration of tokens (dealing with different settings on each environment) Deploy to Azure Whats happened since RTM version? Improvement in integration of external build deliveries Server tags - Copy & Paste of Workflows is no longer required Shipping with Update 3: Support of Desired State Configuration (DSC) 39
