TFS – Work Items

Work items assist teams to manage their work

Common elements:





Fields
Rules
Form
State-transition model
Common characteristics:
 Share a set of common system fields.
 Track comprehensive history of changes
 Support links and attachments to other artifacts

Although two team projects might start with the same work item type
definition, over time, they might diverge as project administrators change the
definitions to suit the requirements of each team project. A change in one
team project's work item type definition does not affect the other.

coverage data, updates work items, and calculates metrics.
 Build Report
 Provides a view into the execution of the build.
 The report lists the overall build status including detailed build
steps, work items resolved, code changes, and summary of test
execution.

Final test pass start: 6/30 (see below)

Over the past few weeks, teams have done extraordinary work getting bugs resolved, triaging hard, and
consistently getting closer and closer to meeting our milestone exit criteria. Ask mode has helped in keeping the
builds working, and we're ready to start group checkins, after the mass integration last week (Lab21, Lab22 and
Lab25 RI'ed in one day!). However, this is about a week and a half behind the original schedule.

Project Portal web site provides role-based views of the development project. In addition to providing useful
information directly (such as the plan of record, defect trends, and other reports), it also serves as a launching
point for various other tools.
