This is where training peaks shines. Easy to check 20min best etc, and even sends an Email if you set a New 20min record. For some reason I like the threshold Power notifications. They feel like kudos.
[Edit - confused Training Peaks with TrainerRoad]
TrainerRoad does similar, but "new FTP, ZOMG thank you TrainerRoad!" screenshot bragging on tw*tter/instatw*t is a bit weird, especially as it's only an estimate and most people are going to be using trainers that are miles out. My Kickr adds 10-15W of flattery - well, according to SRM.

Sounds like TrainerRoad have based the plan on a the use of an initial FTP, and then ramping TSS. Which makes Skinnys answer far more logical than mine. I'd still want to squeeze a test in each month. But thats just MHO.
