Sprint Releases
What are "Sprint Releases"?
We release about every 2 weeks a "Sprint Release" of openBIS, which is a snapshot of the current development version, and a "Sprint Release" of the ELN-LIMS plugin. These versions provide with a good overview on the ongoing development effort. The software is tested, but not to the same level as public releases. However, Sprint builds of openBIS are used productively by collaborators of ours who need the new, much improved functionality.

openBIS ELN-LIMS Virtual Machine
For users who would like to test the openBIS ELN-LIMS platform without installing the software, we provide two Virtual Machines (VM) with openBIS ELN-LIMS already installed. The first has the ELN with default types, suitable for the life sciences. The second has a generic ELN version.
