    Hi Guys

                     I want to Audit whether Scrum team is not associating Test Cases with PBIs and Bugs with related Test Cases , Bugs or PBIs work items with ChangeSets.

    Objective is to know the linking of work items for better tractability.

    How would i audit on this? Which methodology or way i should adopt to achieve this objective?

    like , i can easily audit and track every linkage in TFS:::

    Thanks in Advance!!

    Hi Waseem,

    Thanks for your post!

    What version of TFS do you use? In TFS 2010, there is anability to break down work items into hierarchies, which breaks high level tasks down into sub-tasks and those down into further sub-tasks, etc.

    Microsoft Excel integration has also been enhanced to support work item hierarchies as well. So you can use Excel to trace the work items.

    For more information, please refer to Brian Harry's blog: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/bharry/archive/2009/05/18/tfs-2010-work-item-tracking.aspx

    Hope it helps!
