KOVAIR SERVICENOW AGILE ADAPTER When you have multiple standalone tools for development, testing, and project tracking, there is a disconnect between enhancements and fixes, originating operations, change processes, and deployment. Integration pulls these software development life-cycle workflows together into one system. Agile Development manages scrum or waterfall development and helps you manage the backlog of tasks throughout the lifecycle, from inception through testing and deployment. Kovair adapter for ServiceNow helps to provide greater insight visibility into the entire software development lifecycle. The adapter supports exposing the primary artifacts like Incident, Problem, Epic, Theme, Change Request, Enhancement, Scrum Release, Story, Defect, Task, Knowledge Base and Application Models. WHY INTEGRATE SERVICENOW AGILE WITH KOVAIR? Collaboration - Customers need more transparency than ever before. Customers are able to access their service requests at any time of the day, as long as there is an internet connection. However, internal teams like engineering and testing often find difficult to have complete information and thus all parties involved have partial knowledge. Kovair Omnibus provides a centralized platform to monitor progress and accountability. Old communication processes that caused confusion, like emails and spreadsheets can be replaced with an integrated platform. Kovair platform includes workflow which enables tools to connect disparate functions, route requests, communication features like alerts and progress monitoring that alerts the correct groups or individuals. Centralized data and reporting - ServiceNow integration enables the collection of actionable metrics and intelligence. This data can be used to produce reports and dashboards using Kovair’s reporting feature.

Kovair ServiceNow Agile Adapter Datasheet Kovair ServiceNow Agile Cloud Adapter Page3 The new Story is added in ServiceNow agile which is when approved gets synced to Microfocus ALM through Kovair Omnibus. The Story from ServiceNow will appear as Requirements in ALM. Now based on the Requirements the internal team builds the software piece which is then tested at HPALM by creating Test Cases and Test Steps. On execution; runs are created, and Defects are also produced. When all the Defects are closed, and all the tests are passed in Microfocus ALM the Requirement status gets changed which then flows back to ServiceNow Agile. This helps the external team to know the clear status of the Story they have submitted. From Kovair's central platform the entire traceability of Story to Requirement to Test Case to Test Step could be visible for the management team.
