Why there is no Date related fields when adding a bug or task?


e.g. StartDate, TargetDate, ActualStartDate, ActualEndDate, I want developers to know the duration of task. Am I in right way?

The workitem types that comes with agile & cmmi process templates have the fields that are relevent for that particular process. You can add these custom fields by editing work item type xml. Some links to check out for such customization http://blogs.msdn.com/team_foundation/archive/2005/03/22/400674.aspx and http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/Extensibility_Guided_Tour/Extending%20Work%20Items.asp
