TargetProcess:Suite Software Overview

TargetProcess:Suite is a web-based project management and bug tracking software that consists of five main modules:

It powers agile development processes, focusing on Project Planning, Project Tracking and Bug Tracking practices. TargerProcess:Suite supports all iterative processes, but encourages to use Extreme Programming planning style.

TargerProcess:Suite is the best solution for small to medium size projects. Optimal team size for a single project is 3-20 members. It may be a remote team and in this case TargetProcess will help keep all members on track. TargetProcess supports multiple projects, so you may have 10 or more projects with different teams. See How Can I Use It? sections for additional details.

TargetProcess:Planning

Planning practice in TargetProcess:Suite designed specially for agile methodologies like Extreme Programming, SCRUM and Crystal. It allows you to plan and track project using modern methods. No complex PERT analysis, large Gantt chart, old Critical Path method - just try Extreme Programming Planning Game and you are hardly get back to MS Project again.

The main features of Planning module:

  • Extreme Programming style Project Planning
    Gather user stories. Plan releases and iterations with less effort.
  • Project Dashboard
    One-sight information about actual project state.
  • Personalized ToDo Lists
    Assign user stories on team members. Control status.
  • Burn Down Chart
    Track project progress with one of the best possible metric.

TargetProcess:BugTracking

Bug Tracking practice in TargetProcess:Suite slightly differ from the most existing Bug Tracking Software:

  • It is already integrated with planning application, thus unifying interface and providing single dashboard for more effective project tracking.
  • Bug addition is really simple. You will find only the most required fields in bug addition form. Almost all Bug Tracking Systems have ten or more fields, but usually only two or three of them really used.
  • User Story -> Bug relationships. You may track how many bugs each User Story has. It helps to define the most difficult User Stories and plan next iteration accordingly.
  • Integrated ToDo list for bugs and other project tasks.

The main principles of TargetProcess:BugTracking module are agility, simplicity and usefulness. Simple user interface, only really helpful features, no restrictions and fast feedback.

TargetProcess:TestCases

TestCases module closes the gap between Development and QA. TestCases and Bug Tracking modules bring additional benefits, providing comprehensive information about actual state and quality of user stories, iterations or releases.

Manual testing process using test cases

TestCases module provides the following functionality:

  • Integrated with planning module, thus providing information about Release/Iteration/User Story completeness
  • Detailed charts by user story for current release and iteration
  • Test Runner helps QA verify all test cases
  • Integrated ToDo list for test plans

TargetProcess:TimeTracking

Time Tracking practice in TargetProcess:Suite helps in keeping project on track and creating more accurate estimates:

  • Track spent time for each user story.
  • View time-sheet for each user for any period of time
  • It is integrated in ToDo list.

TimeTracking module supplements Planning module. It brings additional details into project tracking accuracy.

TargetProcess:Reporting

Flexible reports simplify project tracking and status reporting. Also project documentation maintenance will be easier.

Different reports provides comprehensive information about project status, scope and quality:

  • User Stories report including Tasks, Bugs, Time records ( Sample Report)
  • Bugs report including comments, attachments and related user stories ( Sample Report)
  • Releases and Iterations reports including user stories and tasks

TargetProcess:Blogger

Blog is a good way to share opinions between team members and even status reporting. Sometimes formal project metrics are insufficient, and project blog provides informal way to express project state.

  • Blog informer on project Dashboard increases blog visibility
  • Subscribe to blogs via Atom feed
  • Notify team members when new messages appear
