Add or Remove Build Quality Values
One way you can manage your completed builds in Build Explorer is to manually rate the quality of each build. For example, depending on the outcome of a set of manual tests, you could rate a completed build's quality as Ready for Deployment, Rejected, or Under Investigation. By rating the quality of completed builds, you enable team member to filter the Build Explorer to show only builds with specific quality ratings.
For information about how to rate the quality of a completed build, see Rate the Quality of a Completed Build.
The following are the pre-defined build quality values that you can assign to completed builds:
Initial Test Passed
Lab Test Passed
Ready for Deployment
Ready for Initial Test
Rejected
Released
UAT Passed
Under Investigation
You can remove any one of these build quality values, and you can also add your own values.
Required Permissions
To perform this procedure, you must have the Team Foundation Server Edit build quality permission set to Allow. For more information, see Team Foundation Server Permissions.
