Out Of Box widget catalog

TFS 2017 | TFS 2015

Widgets display information and charts on dashboards. Many widgets are configurable and scoped to a team or to the logged in user account. Many display information available from one or more data stores or charts maintained within the system. You add a widget to a dashboard as described in Add a widget to a dashboard. For example, you can add the Build History widget from the dashboard's Add widget dialog.

Work widgets

Add work tracking widgets to your dashboards to show status, progress, or trends. You use work items to plan and track work.

In addition to the widgets listed here, you can add a work item query chart to your dashboard. To learn more, see Track progress with status and trend query-based charts.

From the configuration dialog, select a shared query and specify the chart type and values.

You configure the widget by specifying a build pipeline, branch, and linked release pipelines. To view the test summary across multiple environments in a release, the widget provides a matrix view of each environment and corresponding test pass rate.

You can choose any cell to see a more detailed view for the selected environment.
Requires TFS 2017.1 or later version.

Requirements quality

Requirements quality widget


Configurable widget that you can use to track quality continuously from a build or release pipeline. The widget shows the mapping between a requirement and latest test results executed against that requirement. It provides insights into requirements traceability. For example, requirements not meeting the quality, requirements not tested, and so on.

To learn more about setting up traceability see Requirements traceability

There are multiple chart options to choose from (Line, Column & Stacked Column) based on your preference. Optionally you can map the trend of test duration on the existing chart by adding a secondary line chart.
