How to create code review request with Team Explorer Everywhere?


We can create code review request from Visual Studio. Behind the scenes it creates a shelve set & code review request work item. Reviewer can review the code changes which further creates a TFS work item (code review response). Everything is captured in the TFS.

I could not find the same option in the TEE plug-in. Can anybody tell how can I achieve the same workflow? I do not want to manually create the shelve set & work item. Is there any plug-in available to achieve this?


Solution

  • Currently TEE does not support code reviews, still on the backlog.

    I can't give you an exact (or, frankly, even an approximate) date. There is a long list of priorities - code review support in TEE being one of them. In April, we will start planning for our next update and will see where this lands.

    Believe me, we like this feature (and could use it ourselves).

    Any other opinions/thoughts from the community are also useful to have --- so, feel free to respond on this thread or reach out to me directly (wismythe AT microsoft.com).
