Project Management/Bug Tracking tools...

We are growing from a single person team to a team of 5-6 people and it’s getting harder to keep the project straight, so I want to look at project management tools…
Specifically I want to have a bug/new features tracker, the ability to develop test cases for the bug/new feature (plus regression tests) the ability to interface with CM software (Subversion) and of course scheduling…
There are high end commercial products out there (Microsoft has MS Project and it’s Sharepoint product has bug tracking capability) and some open source (Jira and SpiraTeam for example) but does Oracle have anything to do this (especially one that able to work within the JDeveloper/SOA environment?)
Any suggestions are appreciated..
Thanks in advance.
Michael

Take a look at Oracle Team Productivity Center - http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/tpc/index.html
It integrates 3rd party tools such as Bugzilla, JIRA, Microsoft Project Server & Rally Software into the JDeveloper IDE - letting you assign tasks, keep track of related files and integrate with Subversion, CVS etc...

Want to Track WIP Assembly as Deliverable Actions in Project Management ?

Hello Guys,
Can any One Help me on this question,
I want to Track the Assembly of Work-Orders by Milestones,I want to define Deliverables Actions in Project Management and track Assembly of WIP ?
Is it possible to do with standard setups are I need to do some customizations ?
IS WIP Integrated with Project Management ?
Regards,
Satish

Hi
Standard functionality has not been designed to track in Projects the progress of the assemblies managed by work orders in WIP.
You will need to customize the solution by links between the work order completion action in WIP to a deliverable completion in PJT.

Bug tracking and project workflow management

Hi,
I was wondering how bigger projects are managed so that everyone in the team knows what he has to do and what are current problems on the project, what is their status etc.
I googled for a while and found lots of sites that offer free hosting for web-based project management. I also found a web-based project managing solutions on sourceforge (phpcollab and itracker)
Our company is relatively small but there sometimes are bigger and long-lasting projects and sometimes the status is a complete mystery, nobody knows what are all the known bugs that he is responsible for and project current development/bug status.
We tried with worksheet(excel)-based tasklists but when number of items increased it turned to be impossible to find out what and when must be done.
Thank you for sharing your experience in this area
Mike

Thanks for that, please inform me if I found a wrong product : I found
http://scarab.tigris.org/ as a project home.
It is not the setup that worries me, I mentioned web-based tools because for the current time there is no collaboration with external parties and I want the entire project management centralized in the company

Project management tools

hello all.
im curious as to what other people are currently using for
project management, wire framing, versioning, etc in their
development environment. we are a coldfusion mx7 shop w/ ms sql.
our applications adhere to the MVC structure and modeled using
fusebox 5.0.
my company is currently looking for solutions available for:
wireframe flip / uml software;
bug tracking / ticketing software;
file versioning;
time tracking management;
thanks much!
aaron

For versioning you cannot do better than Subversion(svn) it
is just a complete God send and free to boot, plus if you use
Eclipse (if not why not) then there is a Subclipse plugin which
makes life easy too.

Tool for project management

Hi All,
My project is about to commence.
Can anybody suggest me if SOLMAN is more appropriate tool for project management?
What are the limitations of saolution manager?
Thanks.

We use 3 major tools:
1) MS Projects for Planning, WBS and capture major events. This is basically tracking tool.
2) SAP Solman for Documentation. Lilke Business specs, Technical specs based on each process were documented, approved and stored in the SAP Solman. We also use SAP Solman to plan for Test Plan managements and Testing records thanks to the fantastic intergration of testing with Business documentation.
3) MS Sharepoint for collobaration, storing the project relevant documents like Project meeting presentations, User Manauls, Team meeting status reviews and updates and yes Project event photos etc.,
So in a nutshell there is no one tool can do everything for you especially when we are dealing with SAP Projects. SAP Solman have fine integration with SAP Project methods and System connection, but you need few other tools to keep track of whole Project.
Hoep this helps. Good Luck

Project Bug-tracking practices

I am not sure this is the right place to ask this, but this is the place on the Web I feel most comfortable.
Our company projects get larger and we get lot of user requests and problem issues. Currently we keep them in an MSAccess database in a single table that has links to bookmarks in Word files. This seems very inefficient to me since most people have lots of issues against their names. Sometimes I spend half an hour to look up bugs that are fixed in 5 minutes(not to soeak of priority, version requirements, bug verification).
So I came to the idea to look for bug-tracking system that will ease this process. The bad thing here is that the management will not pay
for one, at least not at this stage. Another problem seems to be that the we use Windows as platform for all machines . I spent half a day yesterday searching the web for possible solutions. I came up with bugzilla, but ended up with the fact that 'installing under Windows is a painfull process'. After new search I came up with scarab, which seemed good because it is pure Java. I spent another half day today trying to make it work and though I read the install manual completely I sill cannot get to log-in into it.
What products do your companies use? I am sure I am far from the first to encounter this issue.
To summarize the product requirements:
1. Free (maybe paid support)
2. Windows - compatible
3. DB - Oracle or MSSql server
4. Easy set-up and configuraion is definitely preferrable to flexibility
Please provide pointers since I am close to despair
Faithfully
Mike

So, again out of curiousity (I'm full of it today) -
did you use that Web Gateway thing that did the
5250-to-HTML translation stuff, or was it something
more intense then that?No, it was much more basic than that. There's a
service program somewhere in the system that
encapsulates most of the things required for CGI
programming and I just used that. (Based on code I
cribbed from a magazine article.) This was in late
1999, by the way.Ah - I was messing with this stuff around then - or 98 even - and ended up using this:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/html/as400/v5r1/ic2978/index.htm?info/rzal3/rzal3overview.htm
Which worked out surprising well - ugly webpages, but then if you're used to a 5250 terminal session you felt right at home.

How to use MS Project in conjunction with a time-tracker tool

In my new job, the company is using a time-tracking tool in a very strict way.
Allow me to explain...
Let's say the project has two phases: Ph1 and Ph2.
Ph1 starts on day 1 and effort is 5 days.
Ph2 starts after Ph1 and effort is 10 days.
There are 3 resources available, R1, R2 and R3, and after a careful estimate of skills and avilability it has been decided the following:
- Ph1 is assigned to R1 from day 1 to day 5, resulting in a duration for Ph1 of 5 days.
- Ph2 is assigned to...
...R2 from day 6 to day 10
...R3 from day 8 to day 12
resulting in a duration of 7 days.
The above is mapped into the time-tracking tool to allow each resource to track time against Ph1 or Ph2 only in the aplanned timeframe. That is: R3 will be able to track
hous aganst Ph2 only from day 8 and only till day 12. That is to avoid that resources track more time that what was originally allocated: if this is necessary, it must be explained why, a new plan must be calculated and more budget must be allocated. When
the ok is given, the tasks in the time-racking tool will be changed accordingly.
If the above situation is clear, my question is: how would you model this in MS Project?
If the WBS in MSP is simply
1. Project X
1.1 Ph1
1.2. Ph2
when allocating R2 and R3 to Ph2, how can I specify that R2 will work only from day 6 to 10 and R3 from day 8 to 12?
At the moment the only clean solution I found is to go into the task usage view and adjust, for each day, the working hours of each resource assigned to the activity.
A second less clean solution is to have a WBS like follows
1. Project X
1.1 Ph1
1.2. Ph2
1.2.1 Ph2.R2
1.2.2 Ph2.R3
that is split Ph2 into two sub-activities, one for each resource.
Thanks fo any help.

Thanks a lot to both of you for your suggestions.
Unfortunately the time-tracking tool cannot be changed: it is a new SAP based tool deployed worldwide.
The problem is that each project involves different teams from differnt countries for a fixed "budget" (or a fixed number of man-days). Therefore there is a global PM in London that will define in the time tracking tool
a WBS like this
1. Project X
1.1 Analysis
1.1.1 Analyse impact for team in Rome
1.1.2 Analyse impact for team in Amsterdam
1.1.3 Analyse impact fr tam in Bangkok
1.2 Development
1.2.1 Develop A
1.2.2 Develop B
1.2.3 Develop C
1.3 Customer Acceptance Test
1.3.1 Prepare test environment by team in Amsterdam
1.3.1 Test by final user
1.3.2 Support user testing by team in Rome
then he would assign the development tasks to the rsources that are supposed to work on it and for only the estimatd time. The reason is easy: he want to make sure that a resource tracks time only against the task she is supposed t work on and for only the
estimated number of days, to avoid exceeding the budget. If extra effort is required for a resource on a task, before allocating more time on that task, a long battle will start.
This we cannot change.
The problem now is on our side, the teams in Rome/Amsterdam/Bangkok: we must keep our own plan in MSP. Our tam in rome is divided in 4 sub-teams, one for each module of the core product, each team with a team
leader assiging tasks to resources with Asana. Untill las week, for months, there was not PM in Rome leading the four teams and hand and of course there was no global plan for the tasks in Rome.
My first attempt was to try with a Gantt that would stop at phases level, without going down to task level, that are under responsibility of the 4 team leaders. the reason being that we have something like
25 projects, some with dependecies with each other. I simply wanted to avoid having one huge MSP file with all projects down to task level: by experience, in my previous project (an ERP upgrade for Oracle EBS in FAO) this approach did not work very well.
But this is bringing up he problem I described: if I stop at "1.2 development" in the WBS, than when I assign R1 and R3, to mak sure their effort is planned accordingly to what has been setup in the time-raking
tool, I need to edit work in the task usage resource by resource, activity by activity.
The other option is to insert under 1.2 development another level with all tasks from Asana, each task being assigned to one resource:
1.2 Development
1.2.1 Develop A
1.2.1.1 Develop class x (by R1)
1.2.1.2 develop class y (by R3)
1.2.2 Develop C
1.2.2.1 Develop new pricing interface (by R4)
1.2.2.2 Modify all logos (by R7)
A third option would be to have one dtailed plan for each project down to the Asana task and then one higher level plan summarising all projects, down to phases only.

Project management tools for complex publishing project?

I was wondering what project management tools people use for managing complex InDesign projects? Software-oriented project management tools, or are there tools specifically for publishing projects?

The "Yes" is a link to a list of them. There are also a number of web-based services like 37 Signals.

Recommend project management calendar tools that integrate with SharePoint

Hi All,
Has anyone integrated SharePoint with project management tools like Trello or DivvyHQ. We built out a task management system in SharePoint, and would like to integrate it with an out-of-the-box project planning tool so marketers can take advantage
of calendars with multiple dates, ghantt charts, etc. I'm looking for something out-of-the box that already has an integration with SharePoint.
Thanks,
-Jamie

HRMS Integration with third party Project Management Tool

Hi All,
We have plans of procurring a third party Project Management Tool which needs to be integrated to existing Oracle Financials. Project Management Tool needs employee information for its functioning.
a)Is there any API available for this purpose which exposes HR data to any third party tool?
b)Can anyone suggest what should be the approach for such integration?
Thanks in advance
Regards,
SA

What 3rd party tool are you going to be using? You might get lucky and it might be something that Oracle has bought recently. Does this post mean you are using Oracle Projects? If so, you may want to post this question in that forum as well. At least you would limit the audience to projects oriented customers, so might get some better replies there than you will here. Food for thought.

Solution manager-third party tracking tools conectivity

Hi Murali Narayanan
If you wan to achieve monitoring from technical perspective, the way that was introduced by shivjansi might be the option.
If you want to check the entry of specific table in stand alone MSSQL to ensure the business process that use MSSQL
stand alone DB, you can use BPMon remote DB monitoring that enables monitoring of non ABAP/ non SAP that supported
by netweaver like MSSQL, Oracle, DB2.
By using this function, you can monitor the entry of your stand alone SQL server.
For example, stand alone SQL Server has some table that contains some error,
or there is application table and in one row that it indicates error or completeness.
Now if you want to check these error document or incomplete document in the DB,
you can use BPMon remote DB monitor.
By monitoring this, you can ensure whether there is issue in your business or not.
You can find out how to setup from following link.
http://service.sap.com/bpm
->technical detail ->Setup Guide for non-ABAP/non-SAP
P14 (The monitoring object u201CGeneric Table Entry Counter for remote DBu201D (NATABCNX) )
is related description.
(In the document, it also introduce some other way using web service).
Also in same link, you can find out other document like how to setup BPMon.
Also there is some blog about table entry counter. it is for SAP ABAP system.
But the function is more or less same for remote DB.
So you can also check following blog to have more understandable image.

HP Application LifeCycle Management - URL for use with another Project Management Tool

I'm trying to find a way to get a ALM Requirement URL that will work with other applications. The URL from the COPY URL option (when right-clicking on the requirement) works for e-mails but I can't seem to get it to work for another project management application (Daptiv). We would like to insert the QC Requirement link to another application where the user can access the requirements directly when clicking on the QC hyperlink.
We have HP Application Lifecycle Management Software Version 11.00 Enterprise Edition.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

As Abhishek mentioned we dont need a calc manger or EPMA to migrate classic planning applications. You just need to log into shared services, expand file system and take a file system export, paste the export to the destination environment, now use it as a source and perform an import in the shared services of destination server. It worth having a look at:
