Your company plans to use an agile approach to software development.
You need to recommend an application to provide communication between members of the development team who work in locations around the world. The applications must meet the following requirements:
✑ Provide the ability to isolate the members of different project teams into separate communication channels and to keep a history of the chats within those channels.
✑ Be available on Windows 10, Mac OS, iOS, and Android operating systems.
✑ Provide the ability to add external contractors and suppliers to projects.
✑ Integrate directly with Azure DevOps.
What should you recommend?
A. Skype for Business
B. Bamboo
C. Octopus
D. Slack
Correct Answer: D
Slack is a popular team collaboration service that helps teams be more productive by keeping all communications in one place and easily searchable from virtually anywhere. All your messages, your files, and everything from Twitter, Dropbox, Google Docs, Azure DevOps, and more all together. Slack also has fully native apps for iOS and Android to give you the full functionality of Slack wherever you go.
Integrated with Azure DevOps –
This integration keeps your team informed of activity happening in its Azure DevOps projects. With this integration, code check-ins, pull requests, work item updates, and build events show up directly in your team’s Slack channel.
Note: Microsoft Teams would also be a correct answer, but it is not an option here.
