In sectors where uptime is sacred and compliance is non-negotiable, speed alone isn’t enough. You need precision; you need audit-ready confidence; you need AI-native software delivery that’s built for the realities of regulated, high-stakes enterprise DevOps.

That’s why OpenText™ DevOps Aviator now flies with a copilot—thanks to its new integration with GitHub Copilot!

This marks a major leap forward in AI for DevOps—where artificial intelligence isn’t just an assistant, but an architect of secure, compliant delivery. More than a productivity boost, the integration of OpenText DevOps Aviator and GitHub Copilot Extensions redefines what AI can achieve when it doesn’t just support developers—but intelligently orchestrates enterprise-grade software delivery from end to end.

“Organizations working in high-stakes environments need more than generic automation,” said Tal Levi-Joseph, VP of Software Engineering at OpenText. “Our partnership with GitHub brings intelligent, secure, and compliant AI assistance directly into developers’ native workflows—unlocking real productivity while reducing risk.”

DevOps re-architected for AI-native software delivery

As part of OpenText Cloud Editions (CE) 25.3, this integration brings AI for DevOps directly into the OpenText™ Core Software Delivery Platform. From initial planning through testing, deployment, and feedback loops, AI is no longer bolted on. It’s built in—tailored for the scale and complexity of enterprise DevOps.

What this unlocks:

  • Security-first pipelines with STRIDE-based threat modeling that’s AI-driven, not manual.
  • Regression-proof testing across unit, UI, and integration layers—unified and platform-aware.
  • AI-powered planning that converts features into traceable, sprint-ready tasks.
  • Smarter defect resolution that transforms fragmented issue data into prioritized fixes.

The result? Fewer handoffs, faster resolution, and traceability your auditors will love.

AI that builds, tests, secures—and delivers

Where other copilots stop at code, OpenText DevOps Aviator delivers full-lifecycle intelligence—with compliance, performance, and security engineered in.

But that’s just the start. Key innovations in CE 25.3 empower teams to:

Unify and supercharge testing

Generate JUnit tests and Selenium flows automatically. Shift from testing laggard to testing leader—without scripting debt.

Shift security left

Build threat models from day one. Surface vulnerabilities before release and maintain a defensible compliance posture.

Crush defects with contextual AI

Turn bug data and team chatter into clear, actionable fixes—so developers resolve issues faster with less guesswork.

Plan with precision

Use AI to break down features and stories into testable tasks, improving estimation accuracy, aligning sprints, and keeping teams on track.

Turn requirements into reusable tests

Convert Gherkin-style requirements into executable behavior-driven development (BDD) scenarios. Align product, QA, and compliance from the start.

Built for enterprises. Tuned for trust.

Unlike generic copilots, this joint solution is purpose-built for environments where software quality, governance, and compliance are non-negotiable, enabling:

  • Audit-ready automation across every phase of software delivery.
  • Enterprise-grade traceability for every requirement, test, and defect.
  • Faster time-to-value without sacrificing security or control.

If you’re under pressure to deliver software faster—but can’t afford to compromise trust—this is your copilot for the road ahead.
