Project Lifecycle

The user manages a project through its creation, deployment to a development server, and to the testing phase. The project is then locked for production and deployed on the production server for the 'end user' to use.

The project lifecycle consists of the following stages:

  • Create or import projects in TIBCO Business Studio - BPM Edition
  • Generate test deployment artifacts
  • Deploy the generated artifacts
  • Test on the development server
  • Go back to TIBCO Business Studio and make any changes required to the project
  • Repeat the deployment and test until successful completion

  • Lock the projects for production

  • Generate production deployment artifacts

  • Deploy on the production server

Further Project Development

  • Once a project has been locked for production, you cannot work on it until you unlock it by creating a new draft version. Right-click the project, then go to Deployment > Create New Draft. At this stage, the project's minor version is incremented. See Project Versioning.
    Note: Any other dependent project that references the project requires that it is deployed before the other dependent project (because it could contain new content that the dependent project relies on for correct function). This is verified against the deployed project's major and minor version number during deployment.
