Parallel Development

The Parallel Development lifecycle is a variation of the Release lifecycle and shares most of its attributes. Like the Release lifecycle, the Parallel Development lifecycle is linear. Packages are grouped into larger tasks, which in turn are part of a larger release. The support of concurrent development and the merging of changes across projects add greater functionality to the development phase. Versions in the Closed state can also be merged with versions in other projects. The View Previous Release state is used to evaluate the differences between versions, as captured by snapshot views.
