QA Pivotal Assistant is a Chrome extension developed by thomas.young. As a free add-on in the Browsers category, it aims to enhance the QA infrastructure of the pivotal development team.

With this extension, users can conveniently list Pivotal Tracker stories by owner. By clicking on a story link, the extension highlights the corresponding story in the main Pivotal UI, making it easy to locate and focus on specific tasks.

One notable feature of QA Pivotal Assistant is its ability to count "QA Points" for stories. By including specific information in the story description, such as the QA Owner and QA Points, users can track and assign QA efforts to their tasks.

Although this is one of the developer's first chrome extensions, QA Pivotal Assistant shows promise in streamlining the QA process. However, there are a few known issues that should be addressed, such as clearing highlighting during searches and supporting decimal QA points. Additionally, improving the prioritization of QA points over Dev Points and finding a way to keep the panel on top would enhance the user experience.

Overall, QA Pivotal Assistant is a useful tool for software engineers and testers who utilize Pivotal Tracker for project management. With potential improvements in the future, this extension has the potential to become an essential part of the QA workflow.
