Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) Concepts The ALM framework gives us a structured way to separate development tasks and separate responsibilities. A critical part of this is to separate the development, the testing, and the produc environments. Match the environment with the description that best describes it. A Production Used to try out new ideas, and create new A reports in an environment that does not affect ongoing business operations . B Testing A Used to deploy working versions of reports to the business. C Development Used to present built reports to the business and get feedback from reviewers and ensure everything works as expected
