Implementation of Essence Practice into Project Management System Redmine

In modern software engineering different software development processes serve as guidelines for solving standard set of problems in projects. But in the last 20 years the quantity of different software development processes and tendency of their authors to keep the distance from existing processes resulted in a great confusion in terms, rules and applications for project managers, software engineers and scientists. Considering that the SEMAT initiative set its goal to find the common ground for different development processes for business and academic representatives there is still no case of implementing their results to the existing software development systems. In this paper we present a solution for the implementation of SEMAT initiative to the Redmine software project management system.
