Show area path dependencies extension

  • Artikel

The Show Area Path Dependencies extension, created by Niel Zeeman with help from Steve St Jean, displays area path dependencies a team has with other teams.

Agile teams don’t rely on traditional project management techniques to track dependencies. They are looking for a lightweight way to manage their dependencies on other teams. This extension does exactly that.

    How do I add successor and predecessor relationships to work items and not have to use Microsoft Project?

    Very interesting! I am just wondering, will there be sample code available somewhere that shows how this is actually done?

      Jeroen, we have not immediate plans to go OSS. If you contact us on mktdevlabs@microsoft.com we can put you in touch with the team that owns the extension if you have specific questions.

    @Scott, you can use the web application, team explorer or Excel to add predecessor, successor and other link relationship between work items. See msdn.microsoft.com/.../link-work-items-support-traceability. Does this help?

    Hello, we are using VSTS 2015 and have installed the above extension successfully, however when we use the utility we get the message It appears that you backlog is empty! We definitely have items in the Back log with successor and predecessor relationships. But are faced with a blank screen , has anybody else experienced this, what are we doing wrong?

      @Newby, can you tell me what process template you are using and whether or not you have specific area paths that map to your backlog ?
