We have installed the extension in our TFS instance.

How do I access it from the UI?

Describe the bug
The Feature Timeline link on the Backlog Items page disappears. Initially we were having the same problem in #18 (i.e. the scripts were running under http while TFS was running under https).

As per #18 , yesterday we uninstalled and re-installed the extension. This didn't help initially, but when we restarted the TFS server, the links appeared again, and the scripts were now properly running as https.

Today, the links disappeared again. Restarting the TFS Server brought them back.

Any assistance in troubleshooting this would be much appreciated.

Is there a way to show Features that are done on the timeline?

Curernt the card style is totally different then VSTS. Although I see some difference as alignment of text is needed give extra clearance a more consistent look and feel would be great. I suggest to bring the styling bit more to VSTS.

Beside that more information in the cards would be useful; especially:

• ID
• Assigned
• Tags

Add a view to show on the feature the Remaining Cost / Total Cost of all tasks under a feature.

First off, GREAT WORK!!

Can you please explain the logic that determines where the start of the feature bars are placed? I assumed it was to be the start of a user story being transitioned from proposed to the active state, but that does not seem to line up with our situation.

TIA!
MR
PS. Do you have a place for submitting feedback and suggestions for new capabilites?

Can't see how the 'Only top 50 Proposed features are available.' are sorted , as I have Features in the list that are higher than the ones displayed in list?

Cheers

Do you plan to add a total count of Effort(story points) for each sprint? It's a sum of effort(story points) of all the User Stories that go into a sprint. This feature improvement will be useful to show team velocity in the past as well as in planning to forecast how much capacity we would have left in comparison to our velocity, hence how many more user stories we could still pull in for that sprint .

Great work guys but one thing that is really missing in VSTS/TFS is visualization of Dependencies between work items.
even the simplest Dependencies such as predecessor and successor are not getting any visual representation.
any plans on delivering dependency management and visualization in Feature timeline (or even Delivery plans)?

My company has one very large project, and each team is assigned their own area path under that one project. When you click on Plan Features does it show just that area path's features, or does it show all features for the project? If the latter, I am worried that it will be hard to find my own area path's features.

Similar to the optional "Show Details" option, it would be great to have an optional "Show Owners" option that would display the owner of each feture.

Describe the bug
Turn on details so it shows the releated child stories / pbi's for a feature. Then notice it doesn't show linked stories / pbi's that are coming from other team projects while I would expect it still would show those as well

Describe the bug
I have an epic with several features associated with it. All but one feature is displaying in the plan features pane. I've confirmed the feature is properly associated with the parent, in the backlog iteration, is not closed, has its own children configured correctly. All other features seem to be displaying.

Hello,

When the feature timeline is set to show details and completed US. Is it possible to replace the grey bar with coloured segments for the US status?

Many Thanks,

Arji

1. It takes long time to load the feature timeline and Epic Roadmap (Beta) attached is a screenshot
2. Navigating from Epic roadmap(Beta) to Backlog breadcrumb leads to blank page sometimes.
3. Even the same epic is shared by two teams. I am unable to see anything in the epic Road map

We are using 2 portfolio backlogs above Epic: Goal and Vision. It would be great to choose the portfolio backlog that is used for the timeline and the roadmap. So we can see our Goals on the timeline and our Visions on the roadmap. It would be even better to have separated timelines for each portfolio backlog.

On clicking "Feature Timeline" I get the error: "An undefined error occurred while attempting to connect to the server. Status code 0: error." in Chrome, and "'Promise' is undefined" when viweieng teh same page from IE11

Is there plan to be able to show the feature timeline ordered by People?
This will help make devs look into the features up coming and get prepared.

As a user, I want to be able to visually differentiate when feature bars start/end beyond the displayed sprints from those that start end on the sprints when the bar's end is the rounded square.

Describe the bug
It appears that the dates for each iteration in the Feature Timeline are offset by one day. The end date of the iteration is one day too early.

Hi, we are trying to get your add-in to run on our TFS env but we are getting a SCRIPT5: Access is denied. error in IE, Firefox and Chrome any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Please note that we have successfully used other Market Place add-ins in this environment.

Describe the bug
When clicking on the Feature Timeline Tab, I receive a pop-up to enter my AD Credentials, after which time I get an error:

"TF400813: Resource not available for anonymous access. Client authentication required."

This appears to be a new problem, the previous version I was running last week didn't have this behaviour.

My IT department installed this extension for me but it is not working properly. Most of the UI is missing and the timeline states that there are no in-progress features. Is there anything I need to download locally to get this extension to work? I love the idea of this extension and would really like to use it.

Is there a way to hide completed iterations?

For some teams we have more than 100 Proposed features, please include them.

When can we expect this extension for TFS? It looks incredibly useful.

As I scroll to the right (forward in time), I would like to see the left-most column pinned. This will allow me to see the Epic associated with the Feature items in the timeline.

This is useful as it allows the user stories to be dragged first on a new feature w/o having to drag the feature first

Hi I am relatively new to DevOps. My team manages the EPICs and we "move" certain development features to the dev team's project when the dev team is ready to work on them. Those features are on the other board, but are children of the EPIC on my board.

I want to show an EPIC roadmap for all the features under a particular EPIC that I manage, but if a feature has been moved to the other project, it will not show up. The warning message says:

"Please add following iterations in team settings to include theses workitems". Basically it is telling me to add the other team's iteration to my board.

I was able to see features from different projects in the "Plan" by customizing the plan settings, but it is not clear to me how to control this "feature in different project" issue in EPIC Roadmap as well as Feature Timelines.

It is similar to the query across projects functionality. It would be very helpful if we can access the query behind the roadmap.

Thanks!

Winston

I have the Feature Timeline and Epic Roadmap extension (previously just the Feature Timeline) installed. Today I notice a new "Epic Readmap (beta)" button. We have Epic work items disabled and the backlog configured to only show backlog items and features (not the epic level). Given that epics are off (more precisely the epic backlog level is off), the Epic Roadmap should not appear.

When I view the epic roadmap for one of our epics, there is a red message at the top:

"Some Work Items are excluded as they are in iterations that the current team does not subscribe to. Click here to see the details."

When I click to see details, the workitems (both user story and parent feature) I see are ones that have been closed.

Is it possible to filter out non-active or new items in the list of items that are determined to be excluded? This would minimize the chance of this red warning message from being shown.

Thank you in advance!

First of all, thanks for the awesome extension, it seems very useful.

Bug Description

The Feature Timeline extension doesn't load in Firefox 60 or 61 (I didn't try other versions). It works correctly in Chrome and Edge though.

Browser

[x] Firefox 60, 61.

Version

[x] TFS 2017 Update 2/3 - Version 15.117.26714.0

I would expect the timeline end iteration for a feature to automatically become the feature's iteration path if the path is later. I'd expect similar behavior if path is changed to earlier. This can then be overridden -- as it works now -- but would then reset if the iteration path is modified again.

Describe the bug
When I click the "Epic Roadmap (Beta)" link, the page just says Loading... and never finishes. The Feature Timeline works fine.

I can understand not wanting to show the entire feature backlog. I would argue that something assigned to an iteration meets the threshold for visibility in the feature timeline.

As a user, I want to be able to filter out the epics that I don't want to see on the timeline, so that I can simplify what is displayed.

In current version of Feature Timeline extension, child user stories are automatically rolled up to their parent feature, which is a very useful plug in for status tracking. Would you plan to roll up child bugs to the parent feature too? Or at least provide an option? We have some bugs pulled under features and the effort were not properly tracked as user stories.

Describe the bug
This used to work but not sure when it stopped. The two features in the screenshot below are both about 80% complete. All features on the board list 0 stories completed.

Hi,

This is a great extension. Are you planning to allow for an epic timeline similar to what it does for features? We'd like to be able to see our epics and control how they span from start iteration to end iteration.

Hello,

I'm seeing a problem where features without an epic attached are displayed on the roadmap above features that do have epics attached. What parameters do I need to modify to reverse that, or pick and choose where the features are displayed? Or is this something that has not yet been delivered? Thanks so much for your product, it has really helped me as a scrum master give executives a 1000ft view of whats going on.

Describe the bug
Features are not ordered on the timeline based on their stack rank
