|
|
Iterations
Create and manage iterations at the group level, view all the issues for the iteration you’re currently working on within your group or project, and enable all subgroups and projects to stay in sync on the same cadence. |

|
|
Hill Chart Status reporting
Hill charts make it simple to report the general status of a work item, issue, or project. Where before the top of the hill, the item is full of uncertainty and unknowns, and after the crest of the hill, execution is clear sailing with fewer risks and unknowns. |

This allows the maintainers of the upstream project to make small fixes or rebase branches before merging, reducing the back and forth of accepting community contributions. |
|
|
Application performance monitoring
GitLab collects and displays performance metrics for deployed apps, leveraging Prometheus. Developers can determine the impact of a merge and keep an eye on their production systems, without leaving GitLab. |
|
|
Application performance alerts
