Day 1 (Monday): Plan and Prepare

As a Product Security Test Manager in the automotive industry, your week starts with the planning and preparation of the upcoming security tests. Using KanBo Workspaces, you create a new workspace for the project and invite all relevant team members to join. You then add a KanBo Space dedicated to the security testing phase.

Next, you create a card for each component to be tested, assign tasks to the appropriate team members, and set due dates for completion. You also add Checklists to each card to track progress and ensure all necessary steps are taken.

Day 2 (Tuesday): Execute Security Tests

Today is all about executing security tests. Using KanBo’s Agile features, you create a board with different stages to represent the testing progress. You move each card as the testing progresses, from “In Progress” to “Completed.” As the Product Security Test Manager, you can quickly see which tests are on track and which may need additional support.

Day 3 (Wednesday): Review Test Results

Today, you have access to all the test results outputs and reports from the previous day. You use KanBo’s Document view feature to easily navigate through the results and leave comments for your team members. These comments provide feedback to help solve any issues encountered during the test.

You also use KanBo’s Reporting feature to report findings to management, comparing the output of each testing phase to evaluate where to reallocate resources.

Day 4 (Thursday): Follow-up on Open issues

Today’s focus is on answering any open issues and getting back to stakeholders with resolutions. You use KanBo’s Follow feature to ensure you don’t overlook any request, and use the Card Blocker feature to indicate critical updates to the test cycle.

Day 5 (Friday): Wrap-up and Document Lessons Learned

Friday is the final day of testing and it’s time to wrap everything up. You gather all the information about the project, including test results, feedback from your team, and management, and add to the documentation for Lessons Learned in KanBo’s Document folder feature.

Using KanBo’s Gantt View, you review the overall project timeline and analyze any obstacles encountered, and any successes achieved. This information will help you plan for future tests and improve the process in future project cycles.
