Folks, Here at NZ Defence Force, we are just embarking on the exciting adventure of software development using Microsoft Visual Studio Team System 2005. [ For those who have managed to avoid the advertising blitz, this is MS extending the Visual Studio .Net development suite 'upwards' into Requirements & Architecture and 'downwards' into Testing and Database. Yes, folks, from soup to nuts, the entire banquet can now be purchased at the MS Buffet. :-) ] This is a big step forward for our .Net & SQL Server people.
My management is keen to try to integrate *all* our software design, development, testing, quality assurance and deployment into the same framework. This includes our 'legacy' UniVerse systems development. We would have our documentation in the VSTS documentation repository (reflected in the companion SharePoint Web site), our bugs entered into and tracked by the VSTS OLAP database, etc. etc. and our UniBasic source in a VSTS SourceSafe repository (I think this might be 'interesting' as we have source code elements with names like "A.SUB.ROUTINE.TO.DO.SOME.THING" and all those periods will probably upset things). So, has anyone else tried this - has someone succeeded gloriously or failed miserably? Has anyone got a product to sell me that will make this easy and painless? [Feel free to tell me that I really ought to pay more attention to IBM's marketing stuff if IBM have the answer!] Thanks Mike The information contained in this Internet Email message is intended for the addressee only and may contain privileged information, but not necessarily the official views or opinions of the New Zealand Defence Force.
