Adding Effort To Defects
We want to be able to size our defects that don't get fixed in a given iteration so they can get planned like our stories. So, I thought adding the Effort attribute to the Defect type would do it, but it still doesn't drive the velocity or story points charts.
Is there a way to make all the reports and such look at defects as well as stories for the reports that use effort (velocity, story points per iteration, etc)? I'm thinking making Defect a planning item but before I do I want to check here first if this is the right move...
The alternative I'm thinking is linking defects to new Stories, but that seems like duplication...

Accepted answer
I would recommend linking the defects to the stories to accurately track them, as you mentioned.
Otherwise you are correct - you will have to configure Defect as a planning Item in your project area. Patrick Paquette selected this answer as the correct answer
