About the BookAgile ALM is a guide for Java developers, testers, and release engineers. By following dozens of experience-driven examples, you'll learn to see the whole application lifecycle as a set of defined tasks, and then master the tools and practices you need to accomplish those tasks effectively. The book introduces state-of-the-art, lightweight tools that can radically improve the speed and fluidity of development and shows you how to integrate them into your processes.
The tools and examples are Java-based, but the Agile ALM principles apply to all development platforms.

Agile ALM is directed at developers interested in agile practices. The book synthesizes technical and functional elements giving a comprehensive software development approach. It touches also Agile Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) processes including building, testing, integrating, and deploying software. The idea is to improve product quality, to reduce time to market, and to make all parties happier.
There are examples, defined as a set of tasks. There are also described the tools and practices needed to accomplish those tasks effectively.
