When I'm attempting to open any of our projects in TFS 2010 with Microsoft Test Manager 2010, I get the error: The required category 'Microsoft.TestCaseCategory' does not exist for project XXXXXXX.
What is the reason for this error, and what steps can I take to resolve it?
Also, is stackoverflow the right forum for this question? I feel like it's not really a programming question, but it didn't seem to have an obvious home to me
Have you seen this? not supported Looks like the posting was from a couple of days ago as well.
It's likely you used either a 3rd party template or a template included in a prior version of TFS. Was this TFS server upgraded from 2005 or 2008 to 2010? Here is some information on applying the categories to an older or unsupported process template: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vstsqualitytools/archive/2009/12/15/how-can-i-configure-mtlm-to-use-my-custom-bug-test-case-type.aspx
