Why Agile Release Trains and Test
Environment Management Are Important in An
Organisation?
2

• Are you having an incremental process for product
  feature release and delivery? If yes, it is
  excellent news, if not, then it would be
  advisable for you to know that the more you align
  your project processes, the more you can make the
  process automatic.
• Implementation of Scaled Agile Frameworks helps
  you in improving the delivery pipeline through
  Agile Release Trains.
• But, wait, do you know what Agile Release Trains
  (ART)? Well, it is the number of teams involved
  in the release of features and other business
  benefits.
• Every team works collaboratively towards
  achieving a common set of goals. They contribute
  and work hard towards designing the project road
  map and understanding the backlog.

• This is completely opposite to an IT scenario
  where various teams involved in the projects,
  work for achieving different goals in different
  directions.
• They all have a different set of priorities,
  which may cause untimely delay or mismanagement
  in work processes.
• However, with the ART implementation, the
  processes will be streamlined, the test
  environment management will be taken care of. ART
  contributes brilliant benefits to an
  organisation. Few of them are listed here.

• It increases project collaborations
• It improves the features of the project
• It keeps a check on the velocity
• It boosts cross-team productivity
• It streamlines the project deliveries
• It helps in finding instant solutions to a
  feature failure.
• However, the problem arises when the Agile
  Release Trains or the real do not follow the rail
  tracks or when the tracks are not appropriately
  sized, built or managed to keep the process
  moving swiftly.
• Also, these Agile Release Trains travel through
  each stage of development, testing, staging and
  integration to fix the issues or identify the
  problem.

• As rightly said, it is important to oil the
  tracks to keep the process going you need to
  prepare a road map for the rail tracks. To
  prepare this, you need to ensure the following
  things.
• Understand, map and model the IT environments and
  systems
• Catch the process demands and manage the
  disagreements
• Streamline the process and operations
• Continuous analysis and reporting for the project
  improvement track.
• What are the benefits of implementing effective
  IT test environment management to ART?
• IT test environment management and test
  environments are major reasons for project
  delays. By implementing effective TEM, you ensure
  the following.

6

• You will be able to prepare a system in advance
  and show your environment readiness
• You can develop an environment suitable and fit
  for the purpose
• You can ensure the environment stability
  beforehand to avoid any disruption
• Increase the productivity of the team
• Reduce project costs due to streamlined processes
  and clear goals.
• ART, along with TEM, ensure that everybody is
  working towards a common business goal and the
  process mission is the same. Organisations that
  have implemented ART are able to define, deliver
  and operate the solution effectively and are able
  to grab positive results.
