HCL DevOps Loop provides an integrated suite of capabilities such as Plan, Code, Control, Build, Test, Release, Deploy, Measure and Harbor (if enabled) to manage every stage of the software development lifecycle within a connected, continuous loop.
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.
The Insights feature provides DevOps metrics for your project data.

This document includes information about hardware and software requirements for HCL DevOps Loop.
HCL DevOps Loop is a platform designed to support the full DevOps lifecycle. The Getting Started section introduces key concepts and walks through the initial steps to help new users begin working with the platform.
This section provides information on administration, installation, configuration, and integrations and teamspace management.
A loop is a workflow that connects DevOps activities of your team from planning and development through build, deployment, testing, and release phases.
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 is a cloud-based browser IDE in a dev container 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 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 offers the capability to build applications, manage continuous integration workflows, and store build artifacts.
The Test capability in DevOps Loop is powered by the DevOps Test application. Test 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 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 standardizes and simplifies the rollout of software components across environments within 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.
A release represents the delivery of multiple applications through one or more phases of a life cycle. A typical release includes many deployments to test environments and a small number of highly orchestrated deployments to staging and production. Release managers can define milestones that lead up to the release, as well as a plan to deliver participating applications to each phase of the life cycle.
Use the Home page to view value streams, releases, and insights defined in your environment.
A value stream represents the objects and activities that you employ to deliver customer value, from initial concept to final delivered project.
Use the Insights dashboard feature to analyze project quality and efficiency.
Insights reports are generated for the data that is aggregated in the Value streams, Pipelines, and Release categories. You can generate reports by clicking a button and then shared with the required stakeholders. You can run the following insights reports in Measure.
A release is a repeatable plan that is used to drive deployments.
