Improve project management with tracking system Joshua Hua csci577b
Problems • We work as individuals instead of team • We don’t write down the task list for the team • We don’t track the individual effort very well • We don’t discover the dependencies between tasks early • We don’t break down the team work and schedule individual task very well
Rationale of using trac • http://trac.edgewall.org/ • Free and Open-source • It’s written in python, easy to modify and deploy • Integrate with SVN, bugzilla, eclipse, etc • Rich plugins Burn down chart, Backlog, etc. • Many successful stories using trac MythTV, Pidgin, Virtualbox
Benefits • Define the task in detail • Track effort by task(both estimation and actual cost) • Define priority of task • Assign task to some team member • Give you a big picture of all the tasks for team and help manager to discover the dependencies and schedule the tasks for individuals very well • Trace reversely from requirement to the code
