In the previous chapter, we have talked about the simple workflow of ZenTao. You can cutomize your process according to your actual situations. However, we still want you to make full use of all features of ZenTao. Therefore, let's look at the basic workflow of ZenTao.


In ZenTao, there are three key roles, product managers, Development teams and test teams. The three roles cooperate with each other through stories, repreansenting the separation of the three powers in project management. Product managers gather stories; Development teams perform tasks, and test teams ensure qualities. Their relations are shown as below,


The basic workflow of ZenTao,

1. Product managers create products;
2. Product managers create stories;
3. Project managers create projects;
4. Project managers identify the stories of projects;
5. Project managers decompose tasks and assign tasks to specific team members;

6. Test teams test cases and report bugs.


Now let’s get to know Agile development and Scrum in next chapter.
