In the previous blog I explained how to create a 'Steps to reproduce' control. Lets now add this control to default Bug Work Item (WI). In this case, I want to add 'Steps to reproduce' as a new tab.
If you go to the Layout tab, you will get something like the following image
It is easy to read. The TabGroup refers to tab structure
that previously I have qualified as not meeting the tester’s needs. Now that we have created the 'Steps to Reproduce' control, we can add it to the layout.To add a new tab element, right Click the ‘TabGroup’ folder and choose ‘New Tab Page’. A new ‘Tab Page-New Tab Page’ element will appear at the bottom of the ‘TabGroup’ list. On the right pane, change the label to something more meaningful, for example ‘Steps to Reproduce’. Note: this simply adds a new container, in this case a tab, where we can place control.
Now, we are going to add the previously created 'Steps to reproduce' control we created in the first part of this tutorial to this new tab. To add this control to the tab, right click the ‘TabPage- Steps to Reproduce’ and choose ‘New Control’. The property pane appears, change the label to ‘Steps to Reproduce’, and choose the Visiphor.Steps we created for the field Name field.
Accept everything, and if you click the ‘Preview Form’ button, you will get the ‘Steps to reproduce’ tab added to the tabs section
If you want to move this tab to be the first, right click the ‘TabPage – Steps to Reproduce’ folder and ‘Move Up’ as many times you want.
At the end, you can build a bug work item like
That fits much better my needs as a tester!
Notice the new tab 'Steps to reproduce' contains the control 'Steps to reproduce'
Hope it will work well for you too.
