This book seeks to bring the powerful project management philosophies of
Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) to the VSTS development
environment. These techniques can greatly increase the chances of a
project's successful completion - on time and within budget - and can be
applied to projects both large and small with equal success. VSTS has
always had the capability to support ALM but this capability has not
been widely recognised in the past. This is now changing with Microsoft
now actively promoting ALM and evangelising its use through their
development teams.
