Is it possible to upload/publish Test cases from the TFS Excel add in. I see that I can upload/publish Test cases header information but not the steps with actions and expected results. It appears that there is a steps columns but all steps
are listed in 1 field but if upload/publish from the step column nothing is updated.

Missing over/under utilization chart on the Work Details pane in Capacity Planning
Not sure when this started to happen but the Work Details pane for capacity planning is not showing the Over/Under Utilization graphs anymore on any project/team and current and past sprints. (See image below) Can someone tell me why this might be and to turn them back on?
We are running TFS 2015 Update (although planning to upgrade to Update 3 this weekend)

Deserialization issue with workitems
For several weeks, I was connecting to TFS from my code for multiple usages.No problem with my connection to the server Since day one but today, this error occurred :
Exception thrown: 'Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializationException' in mscorlib.dll
Additional information: Error converting value "System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity;…”
to type 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.Services.Identity.IdentityDescriptor'. Path authenticatedUser.descriptor', line 1, position 170.
I am using Microsoft.teamfoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client library
So, tfs is trying to convert a string into IdentityDescriptor, that I know, but how should I fix that… Do you have any ideas on how to fix this issue.
Thanks!

TFS 2015 SP1 enforce unique value in a field for an int
Hi,
Can you point me to any documentation about how to enforce unique value in TFS ( custom code/ manipulating query and send email etc). User should be able to enter numbers like 1,2,3 etc and before saving the work item, it needs to be checked if its unique for area for that day.
It needs to throw an error if its a duplicate and say same value exists.
IF its not possible to do that, can you suggest alternative way( run a query report and send email to the person last changed that there are duplicates with the same value or stackrank, priority combination or any thing simpler? )
Thank you

I've been exploring the capabilities of TFS regarding showing the owner of comment in code review phase. For the review which has multiple reviewers, we want to show the comments with its owners. Could you please help about it ? If it is possible like customizing other type of work items, would you please show the way of handling this feature ?

TFS 2015 Monitoring...
Hi
I have has some complaints that the TFS Server is slow sometimes, usually get feedback after the fact...
=> Can you point me at any Perfmon or IIS stats I could monitor to look back in time to see issues ?
i.e. then I can check what jobs where running besides user requests..
=> And - Or is it possible to monitor a http ping to the server so I can record response times ?
(remember this is port 8080, not 80)
Many thanks

License required to create Test suite and Test plan in TFS 2013
Hello Team,
We are using TFS 2013, what license does it required to create Test plan, Test Suite and Test cases from Web Access?
From my knowledge, these are now Work Items in TFS, is it sufficient to have only TFS CAL?
Thanks in advance!

TFS API insert shared steps from excel based on ID#
Hello All,
Below I have a Powershell script that tries to insert pre-existing shared steps based on their shared step ID. The test case ID#s and shared step ID #s are stored in a csv file and this script maps the csv file. The frustrating part is that the code does nothing. It doesn't give me any errors when trying to execute it. But it doesn't insert any steps into my test cases. What am I doing wrong?
$csvFile = "C:\StepsMapping.csv" #format: Parent, Child, ChildB, ChildC, ChildD [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Common') [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Client') [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.TeamFoundation.TestManagement.Client") [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client') # Define parameters $tfsCollectionUrl = "http://mytfsurl/tfs/testcollection"; $projectName = “testproject”; # Connect to tfs $tfsCollection = [Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Client.TfsTeamProjectCollectionFactory]::GetTeamProjectCollection($tfsCollectionUrl); $tcmService = $tfsCollection.GetService([Microsoft.TeamFoundation.TestManagement.Client.ITestManagementService]); [Microsoft.TeamFoundation.TestManagement.Client.ITestManagementTeamProject] $tcmProject = $tcmService.GetTeamProject($projectName); $testCasesProperty = [Microsoft.TeamFoundation.TestManagement.Client.ITestManagementTeamProject].GetProperty(“TestCases”).GetGetMethod(); $testCases = $testCasesProperty.Invoke($tcmProject, “instance,public”, $null, $null, $null); $SharedStepsProperty = [Microsoft.TeamFoundation.TestManagement.Client.ITestManagementTeamProject].GetProperty(“SharedSteps”).GetGetMethod(); $SharedSteps = $SharedStepsProperty.Invoke($tcmProject, “instance,public”, $null, $null, $null); $list = Import-Csv $csvFile foreach($map in $list) { $testCase = $tcmProject.TestCases.Find($map.Parent); $oldShareStep = $tcmProject.SharedSteps.Find($map.Child); $SharedStepReference = $testCase.CreateSharedStepReference(); $SharedStepReference.SharedStepId = $oldShareStep.Id;

Using TFS, Git, and Team City
I have a solution that I want to convert to a git repo and use with TFS as well as Team City.
I'm not asking for a complete solution, but maybe some resources to get me started.
I've already got the git repo running, and we're very happy with it. But we want to have Team City take care of the continuous integration.
Is there a way to have pull requests gated pending on the result of a TC build? And have this build run automatically?
Thanks

TFS 2013 – Issue: Stuck builds in Team Foundation Build with no build number
All of the builds are getting stuck in the queue, and the run time shows 0 seconds.
The build server is separate from the TFS server. It runs on Windows 7, and has been for the past year. There are no error in the Console on the build server or in TFS.
My build agents say ready, and have the green arrow.
Had gone thru this issue shown for TFS 2012. but under site binding, I only have one item in the list.
