Studies) the technology leader in defect and project tracking today announced the general availability of DevTrack 5.6. The new release enhances this market-leading defect tracking tool’s power to manage and automate the software development lifecycle through an improved Web interface and an Offline Edition.
The new DevTrack Web interface provides an improved user interface out-of-the-box and allows users to easily customize the application’s look and feel through the support of dynamic user interface style theme selection. Administrators can define Web style sheet themes in DevTrack Admin and once defined each project can have a default theme. Additionally, each user can dynamically select the theme of their choice, from those defined in the DevTrack Admin, via the Web client preference settings.
DevTrack 5.6 also introduces the DevTrack Offline Edition, the portable version of DevTrack for users who need to use the application but do not have access to the live central DevTrack database. The offline add-in module allows existing users to access DevTrack from anywhere, at anytime. Team members who are often traveling and may not have connectivity to the live DevTrack database can create new issues or update existing issues while they are offline and then when they have network access they can update the live database at their convenience.
“Ease of use and customization have always been important to our customers,” says Tieren Zhou, President of TechExcel. “The improved Web interface and style sheet support provide a level of customization that is unique to DevTrack. We have taken the same flexible approach that we’ve strived for in our workflow and process management and now we are applying it to our user interface.”
