My tips: Learning Process of team Foundation Server

Just as your own learning diary.

 

Team Foundation Server is a tool used by Microsoft to manage teams. Its core idea should be MSF. So I started Step 1 from MSF.

MSF: Microsoft solution framework. Microsoft solution platform, including product management,ProgramManagement, development management, test management, release management, user experience management, etc. These are exactly the team models of MSF.

 

Product Management --- program management --- Development

User Experience --- release management --- Test

 

Product Management)

Objective: To make the customer satisfied with the product and be willing to pay for it.

Details:

1. Understand the customer's requirements and provide the project's long-term vision. To ensure that the final product faithfully achieves the customer's intent.

2. You need to develop product features, develop and maintain plans, control resource costs, and manage customer needs. In order to ensure that the final product can be completed on schedule by quality, it is a win-win situation for both the team and the customer.

Input/output:

Input: User Requirements

Output: Vision document, requirement analysis document, feature list document, schedule...

 

Program Management)

GOAL: To deliver solutions that meet your needs

Details:

1. design products, including logical design and physical design, to provide a feasible project solution architecture.

2. provide and manage risk assessment, and develop and maintain detailed project plans.

Input/output:

Input: requirement analysis document, feature list document

Output: High-level design document, schedule...

 

Development (Development)

Objective: To complete the feasible solution

Details:

1. Complete the physical design module and estimate the development time.

Input/output:

Input: High-level design

Output: Codes

 

Test)

Objective: To ensure that all functions of the product have been implemented and have a high quality.

Details:

1. Develop test objectives and plans.

2. test each module.

Input/output:

Input: feature list document, product to be tested

Output: Test document, schedule, Test report

 

Release management (release management)

Objective: To deploy products and provide final solutions.

Details:

1. Deploy the product and provide product support.

 

User Experience)

Objective: To ensure the ease of use of products so that users can have a better experience.

Details:

1. Simulate customer behavior, improve customer experience, and provide product documentation and help documentation.

2. provide user support and training.

Input/output:

Input: requirement document, product

Output: product document and help document...

 

I have some questions about the "User Experience" role. Is this role defined after the product is submitted to the customer or as a part of the test before submission? In addition, after the product is submitted, the hotfix and other maintenance work is done by that role, and it is not clear.
