tfs2010

I'd like TFS 2010 to run a bit of custom code whenever a particular workflow transition happens. Is that possible? I've found documentation about Custom Actions, which seem to be actions that can automatically trigger work item transitions (am I getting that right?) I also found Custom Activities, which are related to Builds. But nothing that serves this particular requirement - am I missing something? Thanks for your help! This is very doable. It is so doable, that there are many ways to do it. One of my favorites is to make a server side plugin. (Note, this only works on TFS 2010) These blog

What is the best way to integrate nunit tests into TFS 2010? Is it via generic tests or is there a better approach to running them? Ideally I'd like to have the granularity of one generic test per test assembly and have a way to surface the results in the TFS build report. Rhapsody You can run nunit tests from command line and therefore you can automate these tests via your (Workflow) build template. Since there aren't a lot of custom build activities available for TFS 2010 yet, you could write your own to make sure that it integrates better with the TFS Build Report. Here you can find some

I already have a CI build running on my Tfs2010 instance, but I'd like to get a Gated checkin build running as well. There are subtle differences between the ways I would like these two builds would run, however. Specifically, I'd like the Gated checkin to not produce bug workitems on failure, not associate changesets and workitems on build, not move builds to the drop, and not maintain previous builds. Since builds initiated by Gated checkins are uncommitted changes, these steps seem unnecessary to me, but I would definitely like the CI build to perform these functions. Unfortunately, there's

Our team is new to TFS2010. Historically, we have used our own Business Requirements Matrix (traceability matrix) Excel spreadsheet. It has typical columns like: Requirement ID | Project | Rule Group | Business Rule | Type ...etc Our Business Rule column reads something like the following: "The system shall provide a means to allow the actor to search for a Study." "The system shall provide a means to allow the actor to search for a Project." "The system shall generate a move activity for the inbound package." "To Import Barcoded Manifest, the system shall, with each sample placeholder,

Closed . This question is opinion-based. It is not currently accepting answers. Learn more . Want to improve this question? Update the question so it can be answered with facts and citations by editing this post . How significant are the differences between Visual Studio Scrum 1.0 & MSF for Agile Software Development v5.0 process templates? Has anyone used one over the other? We are currently using external tools ( TRAC ) for implementing Scrum in our development process, since MS came up with additional process guidance in TFS2010, these 2 things confuse me to the core! Unsure, which one to

I am currently setting up a Team Foundation Server 2010 and I found a very strange behavior when performing a build: The situation explained: We have 2 Branches Development Main All developers check in code into the Development branch only. Once per day, the build manager merges some changesets over to the Main branch. On the Development brach, a continuous build at each check in is running. On the Main branch, once per day (in the night) a build is triggered. Now suppose that the changesets 1-100 are being merged into the Main brach at 5pm, giving changeset 101 as the merge operation. Some

I have an TFS server installation that through time has gone through upgrades from TFS 2005 to TFS 2008 and then to TFS 2010. During the lifetime of the installation a lot of projects have been created and different project templates have been used. MSF Agile 4.0, 4.1, 4.2 and 5.0. and a few MSF CMMI ones. What I would like to do is "replace" the project template used for all these projects to use a new one common one: Microsoft Visual Studio Scrum 1.0. I am aware that TFS project templates are used as templates for creating new projects and cannot modify the tfs projects definitions after

I am trying to deploy using Team Build 2010 to a Windows Server 2008 R2 web server. My build server agent is setup to run under a Windows domain account. I have successfully given this domain account permissions on my web server for the deployment using the IIS Manager permissions. This account is not an Administrator on the web server. I can get the build deploying just fine using the following parameters: /p:DeployOnBuild=True /p:DeployTarget=MsDeployPublish /p:CreatePackageOnPublish=False /p:MSDeployPublishMethod=WMSVC /p:AllowUntrustedCertificate=True /p:MSDeployServiceUrl=webservername /p
