OpenText AccuRev vs. Yarn

This is one of the best version control tools I have used.

There is really no real reason why not to use Yarn today. It's much faster than npm, and you will need a dependency management system anyway. The only thing that might be missing is the fact that it doesn't come natively with NodeJS, and you have to install it yourself. I'd like to see the NodeJS ecosystem include Yarn by default.

• Creation of streams & workspaces are easy.
• Easy integration with other bug tracking or tasking tools like JIRA.
• File comparison and history is possible.
• Project creation and setup is easy.

• Speed of download compared to npm
• Moduel version control

• The tool allows duplicate file name, if both are present in different directories. This creates confusion if multiple people are working on the same file. It should at least produce a warning.

• Rarely, some server connection error appear, while npm works alright.
• Sometimes, deleting the whole vendor directory is the best solution to solve weird issues.
• You still might need npm to install Yarn.

I give it this rating because I found an alternate application that is much more cost effective and quicker

In my view, accurev ranks very low compared to other tools I have used. Microsoft TFS is the best in the industry as of today as it's a complete ALM solution. It does code version, bug tracking, user story documentation, and has easy integration with other external tools supporting many languages. So I would definitely recommend TFS to anyone.

Compared to npm, Yarn is a clear winner here. npm does not look to be getting any improvements recently. And it's much much slower to run when installing project dependencies. This has a clear impact on the developer productivity but also makes deployments slower. So Yarn is still a much superior choice.
