Promotion

ChangeMan ZMF has the ability to promote Change Packages through multiple shared, pseudo-production promotion environments. These promotion environments can be secured as if they are production, and ChangeMan ZMF controls all updates.

ChangeMan ZMF considers shared promotion environments a place where full integrated system testing may be performed. When the time comes for a full system or an integrated system test, authorized approvers promote the acceptable components into the promotion environments.

When testing is complete and the Change Package is approved, ChangeMan ZMF removes the components from the promotion environments. All production installation occurs from the Change Package staging environment. With ChangeMan ZMF, you define your testing methodology and the number of testing levels that are required.
