ALM Rangers Triage #9 – the first of the rolling triages

  • [アーティクル]

If you have recently submitted an ALM Rangers solution idea on Visual Studio UserVoice, you should read on and determine if you are happy with the triage results. You can and should influence future triages!
As discussed in Triage of ideas … ∆ process changes we have switched to rolling. This is the first!

current status

We have two projects (flights) that are in their last Quality-Planning (QP) sprint, which triggered this rolling triage. While the “Config as Code” project is waiting on the completion of copy editing and quality essentials processes, the ALM Readiness Treasure Map team is troubleshooting a start-up race condition.

In are our project idea triages effective? Help us reflect and innovate! we asked you for feedback on your satisfaction of the project ideas we selected in recent triages and have subsequently shipped. In future we will release the satisfaction polls earlier and to the broader community, so that we can determine whether the decisions made at the triage, result in win:win solutions for you.

triage 9 results and recommendations

All project ideas are now plotted in the Product Group and Ranger/Community value quadrant. The latter is dependent on your votes for ideas posted on Visual Studio UserVoice.

The green area shows the win:win projects, which have are typically the ones that receive permission to start taxiing  to the project runway for take-off.

  1. We added new indicators to show the trend of ideas that were carried over from previous triages. Unit Test Generator rating remained unchanged.
  2. Project Unicorn is our next big “gig” … watch the space. Resources for the DSC Library v2 is the other project that received he “thumbs up” and continues from where Create quality guide about Config as Code for DevOps and ALM practitioners left off.
  3. Git for the TFVC Users guide is still on hold, but scheduled for consideration ASAP.
  4. ALM Readiness Treasure Map rating increased slightly in terms of Ranger Value, but has not yet entered the win:win quadrant.
  5. SAFe Practical Guidance, Cloud Service Model Guide and Provisioning VMs to Azure with DSC decreased slightly in terms of Ranger Value. All remain outside the win:win quadrant.

    @Kevin, I will start blogging about Project Unicorn soon. As with all other Ranger projects the community can help by delivering candid feedback, raise awareness and keep an ear to the ground for a call for reviewers and/or testers.

    We are trying to work with the TFS Integration Platform to sync 2 TFS environments. Is there any planned improvement to the TFS Integration Platform? Your blog has a lot of links about the tool from 2012.

    @Veeshan, the Integration Platform was never intended to be a long-term production TFS synchronization service.  It was originally designed to move data from selected competitor’s products to TFS on a one time partial fidelity basis.  Since then it has been used for many other purposes with varying degrees of success.  We do use it for synchronization internally but it definitely is NOT a problem free process. With no new development for the tool for an extended period of time, we suggest exploring other options such as Partner products like from OpsHub (http://www.opshub.com/main) and TaskTop (http://www.taskstop.com). There is work-in-progress on a whitepaper to elaborate further.
