visual studio 2008 - Requirements gathering with Team Foundation Server -


Using TFS 2008 / VS 2008 to Build and Work (Top Level) Task Items for Needs possible? At present, our BA uses Visioso and Word to narrow our needs, so there is no formal UML type user story / case based design, although I am trying to implement something like this.

Our solution mainly uses the following technology mixtures:

VB.Net/C# 3.5 SP1 MetLab 200B SQL Server 2000/2005/2008 Oracle 10G Office 2003 / 2007 (VBA and VSTO)

I have previously searched on Google and Microsoft's sites, but it is adaptive third party process templates and interfacing with all other existing BA devices. Bit will power.

There should be a best practicing approach that I do not think find it anywhere. Customizing or authoring TFS project templates is very easy, you install TFPT (Team Foundation Power). Tools), and a "Process Editor" menu in which "Studio" will be added to the "Tools" menu, where you can easily apply any customization.

So, basically you can work i type anything for your needs, or anything fits in the definition of "work item".

The problem with TFS 2008 is that the only way to link things that work with each other is the "Link" tab, which has limited functionality, where some projects require tracing between requirements The main issue is

The good news is that MS has modeled according to the requirement, by adding "full traceability support" in VS 2010. Another good news is that VS 2010 Beta 2 is still in progress, and it also has a "go live" license.

One more thing that you should know, is that it is really easy and easy to expand TFS and programming. Actually there is a good API, and everything is in the managed code, so you only need to install VS SDK and coding that you should do in TFS. My point is, developing custom tools above TFS Data Infrastructure is easily achievable.

For my projects, once I started evaluating what I can do with management requirements for TFS. Although this can be done, here is the conclusion I have taken: 1. VS Wait for 2010 (it was a year ago, now the wait is over!) 2. Developing a custom tool with very basic requirement management functionality for my team and working on TFS automatically with support To create items (integration with TFS)

For 1 point, we are almost there (VS 2010 beta 2 is out) and for Point 2, we already have a The tool has developed, but it Still not enough for production I have not tried support for managing VS 2010 traceability and requirements yet, but this is something I will do before taking any steps on my device.
