I am software tester working with Visual Studio Team Edition for Software Testers in a small team of software developers working with Visual Studio Team Edition for Software Developers.  As I raise Bugs from my manual test scripts they get automatically attached to the Bug as a link.  This should allow the developer to see the test script (manual test .mht file), result of the test and comments as to why the test failed.  This reduces the effort I have to make when raising bugs as I don?? have to rewrite the problems discovered and how to replicate them.  But as the developer is using the Team Edition for Software Developers they can only ever view Unit Test testing artefacts and no other test documents such as manual tests or web tests etc.

It seams very strange to me that using the Team Edition for Testers I can create bugs from tests results which automatically attach the scripts, results and comments for the failed test to the bug but because the developers are using a Team System for Software Developers they can?? view these documents.

Is this the intended functionality of the two Team Editions?  Is this an intended workflow for Team System?

Cheers Neil.

Neil,

I'm bumping this question over to the Team System General forum where I think they would be best equiped to answer this.

Thanks,

Ian

So are their any plans to rectify this issue in future versions of the team system products?

Many Thanks Neil.
