How to: Verify Successful Migration of Work Items

After the migration is completed, you can examine some of the migrated work items to verify that the information has been migrated successfully.

Required Permissions

To perform these procedures, you must be a member of the Readers security group or have the View work items in this node permission set to Allow. For more information, see Team Foundation Server Permissions.

To verify the migrated work items

  1. Open a migrated work item in Team Foundation work item tracking.

  2. Examine the number in the ClearQuest ID field and compare the Team Foundation work item tracking work item to the ClearQuest bug with that ID.

To find the Team Foundation work item corresponding to a specific ClearQuest work item

  1. Create a work item query with the following query clause:

    And/Or

    Field

    Operator

    Value

     

    VSTS SourceID

    =

    ClearQuest work item ID

    The VSTS SourceID field corresponds to the ClearQuest ID field label that you see on your work item form.

    For more information about how to create work item queries, see How to: Add New Work Item Queries.

  2. Run the query.
