I use Process Editor in Visual Studio 2015 to customize work items (Epic, Story, Task...etc) and to import/export into TFS 2015. It has been working great. Now that TFS 2017 is released, I am looking at updating to TFS 2017. However, i see the below note as a known issue in TFS 2017. Can someone clarify is the open issue with Power Tools will also impact Process Editor. Do I need to have VS2017 to use Process Editor.
There are no Power Tools for Team Foundation Server 2017
Issue:
No Power Tools have been released for TFS 2017.
Workaround:
We are excited to let you know that most of the previous Power Tools have been integrated into TFS 2017. The Process Template Editor is one that has not been integrated, but we are going to publish a Process Template Editor tool for TFS 2017 to the Visual Studio Gallery shortly after TFS 2017 is available. We will provide the link here as soon as it’s published.
