Team Foundation Service updates - Jun 19

  • Cikk

We’ve got a few updates to share as a part of today’s deployment.

Agile Portfolio Management

  1. First, we made a couple of usability updates to the Agile Portfolio Management features announced and released back on June 3rd.

Each backlog in the backlog explorer is now adorned with a clickable color bar that allows you to drill up or down between backlogs. In the screenshot below, you can see that I’m on the Features backlog and that I’ve drilled down to see related Backlog items and Tasks. This provides a very quick and easy way to traverse the relationships between backlogs. The view filter on the right side of the toolbar has also been updated to include the color bars and a clearer description.

  1. Second, you’ll also notice items on your backlogs now include a green plus button allowing you to quickly decompose each item.

Testing Updates

You can now easily transition from the Test hub on the web directly to Microsoft Test Manager (MTM) by clicking the Open using client button/context menu. Doing so will open up MTM (assuming that it has already been installed) and connect directly to your Team Project and test plan.

And, you can now edit the values for parameters in test steps directly through the test runner. While running a test, double-click the value of a parameter to change its value.

Out with the Red

Since the inception of the service we’ve used the color red to denote the administrative portion of the web interface. Well, after listening to many of you tell us that red was not the right color (typically using very colorful language), we’ve gone ahead and made a change. The administrative pages of the service now use our standard blue color.

Terms of Service

Finally, you will notice after today’s update that we’re asking each user of the service to review their profile information and accept the terms of service and privacy statement again. When doing this, please ensure that your contact e-mail is up to date so that we can keep in touch and keep you up to speed on the latest changes and announcements related to the service.

Reviewing your profile information

That’s it for Sprint 49.

Thanks!
