Solution

  • The Test Manger extension could be installed for VSTS and TFS 2017 and upper version.

    But for TFS 2015, it doesn't need to installed it separately. In TFS 2015 and TFS 2013, to get the test manager features, you should change the Access Level of your uses to Advanced.

    1. Login in to the Access level page, usually the path is http://servename:8080/tfs/_admin/_licenses

    2. Add the account under Advanced tab. enter image description here

    Note: You could also set the Advanced access level to default.
