How to get a list of work items related to a build


Ricardo Dias (861105) | asked Oct 05 '10, 9:54 a.m.
Hi,

I am trying to get a list of work items associated to a specific build. I need to export that as a pdf or sometype of file so I can use it later.
I read that using queries we cannot list work items from different builds , because I know that using queries we can export that for a file.
Within the Build context do we have a way to list the work items associated to that build and export those in a pdf file?

Thanks,

Hi

Haven't you tried to use a field to store that build number, add it to the work items you want and make a query based on that field ?

The field containing can be an existing one or one you add when configuring the process
* you may use the release field (on the eclipse client -> Team organisation tab -> Process Configuration -> Last tab "Releases").
* you may use work item categories and the "Filed against" field (you would define a category "Application name" and subcategories with the version number for instance).
* you may add an attribute "build number" (on the eclipse client -> Team organisation tab -> Process Configuration -> Configuration data -> Work items -> Types and attributes -> Custom attributes).

Writing the query then is easy.

Also, all queries may be exported in csv and/or printed

How about:
- open the build result
- click the Work Items link (in the Contribution Summary section)
- in the Work Items view, select all and choose Copy ID and Summary
- paste into a word doc or whatever
