12 January, 2009 / First Thing To Do With Your Copy of TargetProcess

3 comments

We get emails from people who are just starting out with TargetProcess, and they go: where do we begin? What is an Iteration? What is a User Story? How do I plan Release? How to I create a Requirements Backlog? How can I learn fast? Our universal answer to these questions is a cute Getting Started page (Home - Getting Started). You could use it as a quick visual introduction to TargetProcess and as a glossary of agile definitions and methodology. We really did our best to come up with this page, and occasionally people who are not able to find it right away are just so glad as they're told that this page exists! :)

What's more, there's one very helpful button at this page - it's called Generate Sample Project - and it's at the bottom left of Getting Started page. It might take you a while to find this button, as it's really hidden at the bottom - but well the efforts will pay off for sure! :)

This is a joke but actually we're going to increase visibility of Generate Sample Project button in the next versions of TargetProcess. This button produces a canned sample project called Private Universe so you could rather spend your time learning the product, and not inventing some test project. The sample project does have requirements backlog in place, planned iterations, releases, time records, all the reports, burn-down charts etc. — in a nutshell, the complete set of TargetProcess functional features.
