WHAT:

Connecting Developer Workflow: Mylyn and the Task-Focused Interface

In less than four years, Mylyn's task-focused interface has gone from a university whiteboard to a tool with more than a million monthly downloads. The next big step in the evolution of developer tools is becoming clearer, as tasks and work items become more important than files. Increasingly, focus is more important than features, and an explicit context is a great way to automatically connect software planning to production. The Eclipse Mylyn project has restructured the integrated development environment (IDE) interaction around tasks, connecting the developer's workflow to Agile and ALM systems. Today, Mylyn provides the developer with unified access to leading ALM systems and features such as cross-repository linking and Agile planning. During this presentation, Green will outline the latest developments around the use of Mylyn, and demonstrate new integration and productivity benefits to users of Microsoft TFS, as well as developers based in Visual Studio.
