Overview

Screenshot of Select Scope Manager - Application - 2003

XP is based around rapid decision-making and development feedback. This can be difficult to achieve without an accurate quantitative view of development. Select Scope Manager automates XP project tracking through Story and Task scope management.

Select Scope Manager enables stories, ideas, documents and analysis to be logged. This then allows development teams to estimate and detail the tasks required. Stories can then be selected and assigned to releases, based on resources and risks. Each Story then follows its own (defined) development process (each development process is defined on a project by project basis). During the development, progress is monitored and scope is adjusted accordingly. Task sheets, project plans, timesheets, velocities, work breakdown charts and project roadmaps are all generated automatically.

Select Scope Manager(TM) helps developers automate their XP development, speeding the delivery of business critical applications.
