Compuware and IBM describe concrete outcomes: a commitments to deliver every 90 days and hit it 12+ times, a toolchain using Topaz on AWS, Eclipse/zOS Explorer, Jenkins, Sonar, PW and Git SCM, Jenkins-driven nightly regression and automated test coverage, and zD&T for fast environment provisioning. Measured wins include reduced time to deployment by two-thirds, external defects down 7% year‑over‑year, doubled features per developer, daily beta builds, and environment deploy times cut from three days to ~30 minutes.
