In this article, you will understand step by step how to easily integrate with Github
The integration with Github will allow all repositories, pull requests and automated tests to be collected automatically for auditing purposes. Performing this task manually can be quite tedious. Henceforth the integration will streamline the testing related to source control and change management. For example, the code review control will now automatically be collected as evidence.
