4.1. Creating Application Life-cycle Environments

An Application Life Cycle Environment represents a step, or stage, in a promotion path through the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). The first part of this example configures two Life-cycle Environments: Dev; and QA. The second part of the example creates a Content View for use with those environments.

Procedure 4.1. To Create Application Life-cycle Environments:

  1. Click ContentLife-cycle Environments to open the Life-cycle Environment Paths screen.
  2. Click the "plus" (+) sign next to the Library environment to display the Create Environment section. The Library is the origin of all content that you can use in your environments.
  3. Type Dev in the Name field; the label is automatically populated.
  4. Click Save.
  5. Click the "plus" (+) sign next to the newly-created Dev environment, and this time create an environment called QA.
  6. Click Save.
