ZenTao
Agile project management and QA tracking platform
ZenTao is an open source project management platform originally developed in China that supports end-to-end software delivery workflows. It combines product and project planning with quality management, documentation, and reporting in one system, with built-in support for Scrum, Kanban, and Waterfall.
Key Features
- Product management for requirements/stories, releases, roadmaps, and traceability
- Project and execution tracking with Scrum sprints, Kanban boards, and task management
- QA tools including bug tracking, test case management, and test reporting
- Built-in dashboards and reporting for project visibility and metrics
- Extensible platform with additional modules and integrations depending on edition
Use Cases
- Replace separate tools for backlog, sprint planning, bugs, and test cases in one workspace
- Track delivery across mixed methodologies (Scrum/Kanban/Waterfall) for different teams
- Provide stakeholders with status dashboards, reports, and release tracking
Limitations and Considerations
- Some advanced capabilities are offered in paid editions (Biz/Max/IPD) rather than the community edition
ZenTao is well-suited for teams that want a single system to manage requirements, delivery execution, and QA activities. It can scale from small agile teams to larger organizations needing structured processes and reporting.
