Question When I select a WPF control with the crossline of the Visual Studio 2010 Coded UI Test Builder (screenshots), it shows that the used accessibility technology was MSAA. Why is it not UIA? Additional information I am trying out the new Coded UI Test feature shipped with VS2010 and TFS2010. I know that there are basically two U...
Our old TFS 2008 installation is getting old, and we would like to migrate to TFS 2010. However, the structure of our team projects is not so well thought out, and there has been various experiments with process templates and editing of work items and so on. Therefore, I would like to migrate our source code to TFS 2010, with full hist...
We are using Tasks to track individual development items and the "out of the box" configuration gives us only 2 states - Active and Closed. We would like to change it to: Assigned In Development In Test Ready for Production Closed (In Production) Any ideas on how to accomplish this? We've been through everything in the Admin site. ...
Does anyone know where I can go to get a list of the new TFS 2010 features. NOTE: I need TFS 2010 features. Not Visual Studio 2010. My boss is wondering why not just upgrade to Visual Studio 2010 and not worry about updating TFS from 2008 to 2010. (VS2010 is compatable with TFS 2008.) Any input would be nice. ...
Is this something I shouldn't try? ...
I am in a situation where the corporation has just recently upgraded to TFS 2008. They have no intention of upgrading to TFS 2010 at this time. As a development group, we've moved to Visual Studio 2010 this week. As with any large corporation, we cannot get our own environment created to install TFS 2010. Steps on too many toes, and isn'...
I'm running the tfs upgrade wizard (from RC to RTM). On reaching the Readiness Checks I'm getting an error on the 'Configuration Database' : [ Configuration Database ] TF255440: The following account has a SQL Server login, but the login was denied access: DOMAIN\User. The server selected to host the databases for Team Foundation Server...
There is an excellent PDC talk available here from Vishal Joshi which describes the new MSDEPLOY features in Visual Studio 2010 - as well as how to deploy an application within TFS. (There's also a great talk from Scott Hanselman but he doesn't go into TFS). You can use MSBUILD within TFS2010 to call through to MSDEPLOY to deploy your p...
Yesterday I was checking VS2010 editions here and I've noticed that with VS10 with MSDN we get TFS2010 with 1 CAL. I'm a micro ISV (basically sole developer, many clients). I just want to save time - did anyone tried it in similar scenario? Are there any features worth looking into for such a small implementation? P.S. Right now I'm ...
Hello, we're transitioning to doing all our task tracking in TFS 2010 and I'm wondering if there is a more lightweight way of working with it than through Visual Studio? Just some sort of web-interface or a lightweight client, or even some powershell commandlets where I can create new tasks and add information to existing ones. ...
I've got TFS2010 up and running and building a webdeploy deployment package. Into my directory: C:\TFS-BUILDS\Example Build\Example Build_20100414.44\_PublishedWebsites I get the following two directories: WebsiteName WebsiteName_Package All I want to do is run the following command on a successful build - to deploy the site: Web...
I am new to TFS integration with Visual Studio 2010, and I have a problem I would like to solve. Practically, when I open a solution, how can I detect, looking only at the Solution Explorer which file has been changed since my last login? I am able to discover the changed files if I look at the Latest column of Source Control Explorer ...
Can I use Visual Studio 2008 Team Suite to work with Visual Studio 2010 Team Foundation Server? What are the functions that will not work? ...
I have been unable to locate any information on compatibility with Visual Studio 2003 or 2005. I currently have TFS 2010 working correctly with Visual Studio 2008, but we have some developers with Visual Studio 2003 and 2005 instances. ...
I looked at this post http://stackoverflow.com/questions/547468/assembly-references-wont-resolve-properly-on-our-build-server but it didn't help the issue. I am (extremely) new to TFS, and just installed 2010 on a VM. I imported a project and got everything working-ish. I went to create a new build through team explorer, and set it up...
Hi all, A similar question was asked and answered about a year ago, but was either a different issue (everything was in beta) or misdiagnosed. It's located here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/688162/msbuild-task-fails-because-any-cpu-solution-is-built-out-of-order. My issue is that I have a wix installer project, and after upgradi...
I am new to TFS 2010 and wanted to give it a fair try for a small project with a team of 2-3 remote people. Is it a requirement that all my team users are part of an Active Directory network setup? or can I have my team-members to be loosely coupled and be able to login using username/password? ...
TFS Build 2010 is completely different from 2008. There is no "Exec" task - I'm looking for a 2010 equivalent "activity". Is there a way to perform a basic command line execution in TFS Build 2010? ...
Hi I have a couple of questions related to TFS and source control: 1) I was wondering if TFS2010 supports older versions of projects, such as projects from Visual Studio 2008, and whether it can build those projects normally. 2) I'm also curious about upgrading. Can I just upgrade my existing TFS 2008 to 2010 without installing the n...
Hello, any good approach for managing assembly version numbers in TFS, possibly together with using the same number for the build number? I would be most interested in an approach that: Maintains the first three elements of the version Counts the rest upward for every "official" build (i.e. a build originating from certain templates ...
