TFS 2012 Team Alerts do not work

喜夏-厌秋 提交于 2019-12-03 21:09:44
I've installed TFS 2012 Update 1 and set up email alerts in application tier in TFS admin console. After that I added few test accounts to project's team and set-up some default Team Alerts (like 'when a work item is assigned to me'), all through web access. Problem is that nobody is receiving any emails, however when users subscribe to those same alerts individually under My Alerts, everything is working fine. Did anybody experienced anything like this? I didn't find any errors in the event viewer. I think the problem happen when it concatenates all emails together, so try to make sure all

问题 TF400018: The local version table for the local workspace WEBSERVER; (My name was here) could not be opened. Access is denied I keep getting the error above as soon as I open Visual Studio. I cannot access any of my projects. I am the administrator on TFS and I can also access TFS via the web client so I don't see how it could be an access problem. Has anyone gotten this before? I have seen similar errors posted but not the same one. 回答1: I fixed this by renaming the $tf hidden folder in our

问题 We are using VS2012 and TFS2012 and write unit tests for our code. We want to report code coverage, and also using .config files in our unit tests for test appsettings, and also some other settings for logging, MS Enterprise library settings etc. etc. App.config not working in new test framework New test framework of MS should be great, but to me it is not so great at all. How I'm i suppose to set some basic configuration in config files, when the new framework does not use config files

Folder converted to branch?

问题 In TFS (We are using 2012) why is the default to convert your source folder to a branch? I really don't consider the source a branch. What, if any, advantages/disadvantages does this have? 回答1: I'm not sure what you mean by "I don't consider the source a branch" the source folder by definition becomes a branch as soon as you create a branch from it. The target folder is also a branch which is a child of the source branch. There are no disadvantages to enabling this. Regardless of whether you

问题 I am investigating using TFS 2012 as the Source Control provider for Matlab, on Windows 7. This requires installing the VS 2012 shell/TFS client, and the 64-bit MSSCCI provider available as free downloads from Microsoft. I've set all this up and it works OK. However, there is a problem with file differencing and merging. If I view differences from VS 2012 Source Control Explorer, the VS 2012 Diff tool runs correctly. If I try the same operation from within Matlab (using the Source Control

问题 When creating a build definition for a TFS build, there is a section called Source Settings as below snapshoot where we have to define 1) Source Control Folder and 2) Build Agent Folder.

Please share me what that is about if you know it. Thank you! 回答1: $(SourceDir) is the Directory on the Build machine, which will be used for Check

How to configure TFS burndown chart to be for effort points not task hours?

一曲冷凌霜 提交于 2019-12-03 13:19:27
问题 My question is really simple, hopefully the answer will be too. You all know the task burndown in TFS online right ? Here's an example Obviously, the y-axis is the remaining hours of tasks. I want to change that to be the remaining effort points of Product Backlog Items and Bugs. Can I do that ? If so, How ? 回答1: Yes. You have to edit the "Sprint Burndown.rdl" file in your process template (it's in the reports folder). Particularly, you have to change this field: <Field Name="Remaining_Work">

Merge/Branch Strategy

We are trying to implement the "Basic Dual Branch Plan" as described by the ALM Rangers in the latest Visual Studio TFS Branching and Merging Guide . From the guidance: The basic branch plan with a MAIN, DEV, and RELEASE branch enables concurrent development for your next release, a stable MAIN branch for testing and a RELEASE branch for any ship blocking bug fixes. Multiple development areas are supported by creating additional development branches from MAIN. These are peers to each other and children of MAIN. Additional releases are supported by creating release branches for each product

VSO: Single project with a tiered area structure?

问题 Historically we have always had separate VSO Projects for each logical project undergoing development. This is particularly important as we need to have separate backlogs for each project. Each project has its own Product Owner. We have a team of around 10 developers who work between these projects over 2 week sprints. This setup has led to some serious issues when using VSO's Scrum tools: Multiple burndown, cumulative flow and velocity charts Split team member capacity during sprints This
