1. As a business manager, I want to see an estimated timeline of a project’s completion, so that I can make informed decisions and manage expectations.
***Acceptance Tests**
* When viewing a project, there should be a clear visual representation of the estimated timeline from the project's start to its expected completion date. Open a project and verify that the timeline is displayed prominently.
* The timeline should detail important milestones or phases. Check if milestones or key phases are marked on the timeline.
* Checking on a milestone should provide more details or a brief description. Try checking in on a milestone and see if additional information is displayed.
* If a project is behind schedule, there should be a visual indicator that highlights this. Open a project that is behind its schedule and verify if there's a distinct visual indication.
2. As a business manager, I want to be able to switch between different calendar views (such as day, week, month) so that I can view my schedule in a way that’s relevant and comfortable.
***Acceptance Tests**
* By default, the calendar should open in the monthly view. Access the calendar and check its default view.
* There should be clear options/buttons to switch between day, week, and month views. Identify and click on the buttons or options for day, week, and month views.
* When switching to the "day" view, the user should see the schedule for the selected day with hourly details. Switch to "day" view and check if hourly details are provided.
* When switching to the "week" view, the user should see the 7-day week starting from Sunday or Monday (based on regional preferences) with daily events. Switch to "week" view and verify the start of the week and daily events.
* When switching to the "month" view, the user should see an overview of the entire month with important events highlighted. Switch to "month" view and look for highlighted events.
* The transition between different views should be smooth, without excessive loading times. Toggle between the different views and note the responsiveness.
