Lightweight tooling is the name of the game when automating the software delivery process. Organizations that incorporate feedback processes into their software delivery pipelines create better applications, ensuring higher quality and reliability. XebiaLabs today announced XL Platform, a flexible delivery automation solution to help enterprises deliver higher quality software at a pace that goes beyond error-prone manual processes. XebiaLabs enables organizations like Expedia, John Deere, GE, and Duke Energy to build their dedicated delivery automation platform for releasing high-quality applications faster.

XL Platform comprises XL Deploy, application release automation, and XL Release, enterprise release management for DevOps and Continuous Delivery, both of which are version 4 products with substantial enterprise adoption. New to the platform are XL Test, the first dedicated Agile test management and analysis tool and XL Scale, for on-demand provisioning and scaling of full environments.
 
XL Deploy 4.0 delivers the industry’s first automated deployment parallelization, advanced artifact staging capabilities and a new scheduling console. XL Release 4.0 features a UI redesign for even more space and ease of use, new delivery pipeline and release summary dashboards, and webhook support for simple configuration of additional automated tasks.
