[VS ALM Rangers] Visual Studio 11 Architecture Tooling Guidance

Francisco Fagas — Thu, 20 Oct 2011 04:15:02 GMT

On Thursday October 13, 2011 was made the kick-off meeting of this project's update as part of our Visual Studio 2011 Readiness initiative. Our motivation and vision of this project is provide a practical guidance for Architecture Tooling for developers based on real world guidance from PG SMEs and VSTS Rangers to help customers successfully adopt the new features.

Talking about history, motivations and whys

We start the architecture tooling guidance November 16, 2009 providing a practical guidance to help you address challenges such as: How the new Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate tools….

can help me of way to successfully building a new system?
can help me to understand (parts of) the existing system to be able to maintain or extend it?
can help me to understand (parts of) the existing system to be able to tell something about its quality?
can help me to validate a system architecture?
can help me to establish traceability?
can help me to create a reusable (repeatable) architecture?

… Our Answer: Practical guidance for Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate, focused on modeling tools. The First release included common usage scenarios, hands on labs, and lessons learnt in-the-field from the communities.

The actual Core Scenarios for Visual Studio 2010 are…

… Community answer: Great job guys!!!

and other questions and needs as:

Visual Studio 2010 ultimate include some new UML designers and others new features as architecture explorer and dependency graphs.. Which is the sequence of use for each scenario? … Our Answer: Don’t worry, we made this guidance thinking of you and your needs, the scenarios include workflows to help you fully work the new features of Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate.
How can I extend Visual Studio Ultimate tools? …Our Answer: Include extensibility HOLs.
The guidance and HOL it’s ok but I wish the architecture guidance integrated with Visual Studio IDE … Our Answer: The Architecture Tooling Guidance, this mean… using feature builder integrate Visual Studio IDE with the guidance, HOL docs and the automation of some VS commands from the HOLs.
I wish that the guidance include some common architecture types …Our Answer: include project templates into architecture guidance extension.
I wish visual support for navigate and understand the guidance … Our Answer: Create videos and publish to play online and offline.
Yo hablo español… existe una guía que me muestre cómo utilizar las nuevas herramientas de modelamiento incluidas en Visual Studio Ultimate? … Nuestra respuesta: Visual Studio 2010 - Guía de Arquitectura. The spanish localized guidance.

Now… I would like to understand the changes ( new features, updates, etc) of Dev11 on the Visual Studio ALM architecture tooling…. For answer that let me show you the epics in which we will be working….

The “Epics”

Epic: As Alex, the technology consultant, I would like to understand the changes ( new features, updates, etc) of Dev11 on the Visual Studio ALM architecture tooling.
Epic: As Garry, the dev lead, I would like practical guidance on how to customize DGML graphs.
Epic: As Garry, the dev lead, I would like to link elements to slides, Word, files, diagrams, and the new storyboards.
Epic: As Garry, the dev lead, I would like to exchange UML diagrams created with Visual Studio with other vendor tooling.
Epic: As Garry, the dev lead, I would like to use the architecture tooling to design my Windows Phone solution.
Epic: As Garry, the dev lead, I would like to use DSLs for generate program code, configuration files, and other artifacts.
Epic: Update RangersArchitectureGuidance.vsix

Why the last epic in red?? It is currently de-prioritised for an second release of the Visual Studio 11 Readiness, because we have a dependency on Feature Builder, which is not yet available for Visual Studio 11.

What you mean with epics? Who is Alex and Garry?

Epics define the value proposition, elevator pitch and the team collaboration story. In essence it is an intent container for product backlog items and associated tasks.

understood and what about Alex and Garry?

Personas which we have defined and are using so far.

You can find more about epics, team and personas in Willy’s Cave.

The Deliverables

The planned deliverables for the Release 1 of this update are:

Guidance Document
HOL Documents
HOL package
Quick Reference Poster
Videos

Questions or Feedback

Please post your questions or feedback using comments of this post.

wait.. Willy and I have a question for you!…

How important is guidance extension to you? Is it acceptable that we have beamed it down the priority list to v2? Your candid feedback will be most appreciated!

Francisco Fagas — Sat, 17 Sep 2011 02:38:03 GMT

Para quienes desean conectar su Visual Studio 2010 o cualquier otra herramienta listada a continuación a Team Foundation Preview en la nube a continuación los vinculos para descargar el software que necesitan instalar.

Visual Studio 2010 SP1
To connect and authenticate with the Team Foundation Service Preview you need to install the hotfix KB2581206. If you do not have Service Pack 1 for Visual Studio 2010 installed then you need to install SP1first.
Microsoft Test Manager 2010 SP1
As with Visual Studio 2010, you need to install the hotfix KB2581206 after installing Visual Studio 2010 Service Pack 1 if you do not already have it.
Eclipse
For Eclipse 3.5 and higher (or IDE’s based on those versions of Eclipse) on any operating system (including Mac, Linux as well as Windows) you can install the TFS plug-in for Eclipse which comes as part of the Team Explorer Everywhere 11 Developer Preview.
.
Build Server (Build Controller and Agent)
To have a build server that talks to the Team Foundation Service Preview, you need to install the Build Service from the latest Team Foundation Server 11 Developer Preview media (Web Install (1Mb), Self Extracting Archive (1.1Gb) or ISO (1.1Gb)
Visual Studio 11 Developer Preview
Also, don’t forget that the Visual Studio 11 Developer Preview has all the bits built in to be able to make use of your Team Foundation Service Preview account. Not only that, some of the great new features of the Team Foundation Service Preview will only light up from the newest version Visual Studio. We are keen to get your feedback on this preview release so download it and give it a go from a test machine and let us know what you think.

Tutoriales de Team Foundation Service Preview

Microsoft ha cargado en Channel 9 algunos videos tutoriales sobre las características de TFS, a continuación les comparto los links con su descripción (en inglés)

Getting Started

Find out how to get started with tfspreview.com. Once you have your invitation code we show you how to create an account and create your first team project. We then take a look around some of the key feature areas in your Team Foundation Service Preview account. Finally we look at how to install the update into Visual Studio to allow you to connect to the Team Foundation Service Preview from Visual Studio 2010.

Managing Security

Now that you have an account for the Team Foundation Service preview, we look at how to add and configure new members to your teams. We also do a deep dive into the security configuration capabilities of Team Foundation Server and find out how to check the effective permissions of a user or group through the web site.

Agile Project Management

Some of the powerful new features of the Team Foundation Service preview are the new agile planning tools. We show use of the product backlog tool to easily prioritize work by simply dragging and dropping backlog items in the list as well as how to decompose work on the backlog into epics and stories. Then we look at planning a sprint, entering team capacity and visualizing progress using the burn down charts. Finally, we show how to use the built in task boards to manage the work throughout the sprint while keeping an eye on the progress of your team.

Using Visual Studio, Microsoft Test Manager, and Eclipse

It’s not just about the web. In this video, we look at using the Team Foundation Service Preview from Visual Studio 2010, Microsoft Test Manager 2010 and Eclipse to manage your code and track your work items.

Team Build

We look at how to configure and use a build server in your own organization for use with the Team Foundation Service Preview. We show how to install and configure the build service and attach it to your service preview account. Then we show how to configure your build server. Finally, we show how to create and manage an automated build from Visual Studio using your newly installed build server and how to access the build results via the web.

[VS ALM Rangers] Guía de Arquitectura

Francisco Fagas — Sat, 02 Jul 2011 21:07:00 GMT

En Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate encontramos nuevos diseñadores para crear diagramas como los que podemos ver en la siguiente tabla, pero cómo utilizarlos cuando tenemos que crear un nuevo sistema, cómo los utilizo para entender un sistema que ya ha iniciado?

Diagrama	Descripción
UML Diagrama de Actividad	Muestra le flujo de trabajo de actividades y acciones.
UML Diagrama de Clases	Muestra estructura de clases e interfases, y flujo de datos entre las clases.
UML Componente	Muestra estructuras de las partes del sistema.
UML Diagrama Caso de Uso	Muestra la interacción entre los actores y los sistemas externos con el sistema.
UML Secuencias	Muestra la interacción de los objetos y secuencia de mensajes.
.Net Diagrama de Secuencias	Muestra la interacción de los objetos y secuencia de mensajes.
.NET Clases	Muestra clases e interfaces en códiigo.
Gráficos de Dependencia	Muestra la estructura compleja de sus clases y árbol de llamada.
Diagrama de Capas	Muestra estructura del sistema en un alto nivel y dependencias entre las clases.

Esta guía se basa en dos grandes categorías, denominadas Escenarios del sistema “nuevos” y “actuales”

El primero se refiere a la creación de modelos para sistemas nuevos o nueva documentación, mientras que la segunda se refiere más al uso de las herramientas para entender un sistema existente.

En la misma guía encontraremos un flujo de proceso para diseñar la arquitectura de una solución, así como la transformación de un tipo de diagrama a otro.
El esquema no tiene nada que ver con ninguna metodología, como Cascada, RUP, XP o scrum, y por tanto debe ser percibido como tal.

[VS ALM Rangers] Branching Guidance

Francisco Fagas — Sat, 02 Jul 2011 17:41:40 GMT

Esta guía se basa en cuatro planes de bifurcación representados como básico, estándar, avanzado, y proyectos maduros de desarrollo de software. Los elementos de estos planes son aditivos, empezando con el plan básico que le permitirá la transición al plan estándar si su producto o requerimientos de bifurcación se vuelven más complejos.

Rangers WCF Load test tool … latest version published to Codeplex!

Francisco Fagas — Tue, 30 Nov 2010 19:20:33 GMT

This morning, we published the latest (Beta November 2010) version of the popular WCF Load Test tool to Codeplex.

This tool takes a WCF trace file and a WCF client proxy or a WCF interface contract, and generates a C# unit test that replays the same sequence of calls found in the trace file. The unit test can then be used to load-test the target WCF services.

Although tested in a few pilot customer engagements, this release still maintains the beta tag until we receive enough feedback from real world scenarios.

The following is a list of new features and improvements:

Provides support for DataSets
Delivers support for duplex contracts
Can handle ASMX services, even without a WCF client, which comes from the capability to process Fiddler2 traces

[VS ALM Rangers]– Nuevas guías en Camino!!

Francisco Fagas — Mon, 04 Oct 2010 16:32:36 GMT

Me es grato darles a conocer que este mes los VS ALM Rangers hemos comenzado 3 nuevos proyectos ( la comunidad nos dió a conocer sus necesidades y hemos dado inicio al desarrollo de las necesidades mas votadas), a continuación su definición en inglés:

LAB Management Guide (TFSLM)
The vision of this projects is to provide practical and scenario-based guidance, backed by custom VM Template automation for reference environments
Word Plug-in for TFS (TFSWP)
The vision of this project is to support the communication between the non-technical users, who prefer Word as requirements elicitation tool, and the developer persona. Bidirectional link between Word and TFS work item tracking is a typical example but as usual, all details will be defined by the project team.
Wall of Scrum (TFSSW)
TFS 2010 has a compelling story on agile development but there is something missing. Customers are asking for a digital Scrum board as an alternative to the sticky notes on planning board. This solution is going to be integrated with TFS for enhanced team collaboration. As usual, we are going to focus on a few top features and at the same time deliver an extensible and customizable solution.
