Capabilities of DevOps Loop
HCL DevOps Loop provides an integrated suite of applications such as Plan, Code, Control, Build, Test, Release, Deploy and Measure to manage every stage of the software devolopment lifcycle within a connected, continous loop.
- Plan
  Plan is a change management software application within the DevOps Loop that supports seamless ticket creation, tracking, and comprehensive issue management. With customizable workflow automation, it helps teams to streamline and adapt processes to meet their unique business requirements while preparing work for the next stages of the loop.
- Code
  Code is a cloud-based IDE that is part of HCL DevOps Loop, allowing developers to write, compile, build, and debug code directly in the browser without requiring local setup.
- Control
  Control manages source code within the DevOps Loop using GitHub compatible APIs that integrate with existing developer tools, workflows, and automation. It supports version management, collaboration, and code governance as development progresses.
- Build
  Build is a build management platform within the DevOps Loop that supports application development, continuous integration, and artifact storage. Its template-driven approach helps teams standardize processes, enforce policies, and integrate testing into their workflows.
  - Configuring an external agent for Build in DevOps Loop
    You can configure an external Build agent to connect with DevOps Loop installed on Kubernetes (K8s), Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), IBM Kubernetes Service (IKS), or OpenShift Container Platform (OCP).
  - Integrating Build resources with existing loop and Teamspaces
    You can integrate the previously created Build resources, including teams, mappings, and agent pools to an existing Teamspace and loop after you upgrade from DevOps Loop 1.0.2 to 1.0.3.
- Test
  Test Hub centralizes test data, environments, test runs, and reports in a single web based interface within the DevOps Loop. It streamlines test management, execution, and tracking, providing greater efficiency and visibility to ensure quality throughout the loop.
- Release
  Release standardizes and automates the software release lifecycle with the DevOps Loop, moving applications smoothly from preproduction to production. It provides predictable scheduling, integrates changes from planning tools, and gives stakeholders clear visibility into plans and milestones.
- Deploy
  Deploy standardizes and simplifies the rollout of software components across environments withing the DevOps Loop. Its release automation tools improve deployment speed and reliability, providing visibility into multi-tiered deployments and orchestrating complex processes across environments and approval gates.
- Measure
  Measure provides end-to-end visibility into the DevOps loop, giving teams to track how value is created throughout the work flow. It consolidates testing, security, and performance metrics to identify bottlenecks, team issues, and opportunities for improvement while strengthening governance across the organization.
Loop Genie - Tech Preview
Loop Genie is an AI-powered, multi-agent chatbot integrated into DevOps Loop. It performs tasks and retrieves information across multiple products and loops through a single conversational interface.
