Spira v6.14 Released: Editable Gantt Charts and OneLogin OAuth Support

13-Dec-2021 by Inflectra Product News

We are pleased to announce the release of the latest version of our award-winning test management SpiraTest system, application lifecycle management SpiraTeam platform, and enterprise agile planning platform - SpiraPlan. The new version (6.14) includes the ability to edit releases and tasks in both the Gantt and Pert chart views as well as additional Single Sign On (SSO) support for OneLogin and OpenID Connect. In addition, there are many bug fixes and performance improvements in the new version.

Summary

  • View, edit, and add releases inline on the release mindmap, release Gantt chart, or task Gantt chart pages in a new popup View full details about each release without leaving the mindmap or Gantt chart, or edit and save changes right there. (SpiraTeam and SpiraPlan only)
  • View, edit, and add tasks inline on the task Gantt chart pages in a new popup View full details about each task without leaving the Gantt chart, or edit and save changes right there. (SpiraTeam and SpiraPlan only)
  • Support for two new Single Sign On (SSO) providers: the popular OneLogin service and a generic OpenID provider. This makes it even easiser to integrate your external authentication system with Spira.
