I am very new to the whole team server foundation thing and I was hoping that you guys could point me in the right direction.
I have managed to successfully import a project from Microsoft Project 2010 into my VS 2010 tfs. Everything so far works great.
I was just wondering if it is possible to have a task that was completed by a developer to send a notification and assign a testing task to the tester.
In other words:
Is this possible or must I manually assign the developers completed task to the tester for testing?. Or is it possible to set TFS up to automatically do this?
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
You can update the rule engine behind the work items. But how do you know the tester? I see two solutions.
In either way you can setup the work item alerts to get notified.
Resources:
Define Work Item Fields
Define and Customize Work Item Workflow
Set Personal or Team Alerts
Configure Email Notifications and Specify the SMTP Server
