“Test Case Migrator Plus” (Excel/MHT to TCM) tool on codeplex

We have updated the “Test Case Migrator Plus (Excel/MHT)” tool (previously called Test Case Migrator) on codeplex today!!!

What's new for this version (RC2)

With this new drop in RC2, the following functionality has been added to the Excel based workflow: 

· Migrate not just Test case, but also Requirement/User story and Bug work item types.

· Migrate links (using “Links mapping” dialog (Excel flow)) between different work item types across different invocations/sessions of the tool. Refer to “LinksMapping(Excel)-Internals-Readme.doc” for additional details.

· Default link types supported include:

  • Parent/Child” links between Requirement::Requirement
  • “Related” links between Requirement::Requirement
  • “Related” links between Test Case::Test Case
  • “Related” links between Bug::Bug
  • “Related” links between Requirement::Bug
  • “Tested By/Tests” links between Requirement::Test Case
  • “Tested By/Tests” links between Bug::Test Case

· Create Test plans/test suites as part of migration process for a Test case work item type.

· Create Area/Iteration Paths at runtime based on folder hierarchy specified in excel file for all supported work item types.

· Analyze the migration process across different runs using “Consolidated Excel Pivot reports” (Excel flow) in addition to the session based output excel file.

· Updated and polished UI for the tool – now this is consistent with VS2010 theme.

· Improved and early inline error handling.

No changes have been made to the mht/doc based workflow other than UI polish.

    How can you import the folder structure you had in Test Director for Test Plans?  I have 4 subfolders with subfolders I want to maintain and can not find a way to do this.

    Hi, I've used "Test Case Migrator Plus" for few days. I found in the test case sample, we can import parameter to the steps, that's great. But I wonder if we can import the value for that parameter also? Thanks,

    Hi, I have been able to migrate test cases from excel into Test Manager, however the Test Suite is not created.   I then have to manually create the test suite and 'Add' the migrated test cases to that suite.   Is there something I should be doing in addition to adding the test suite path to a column in my excel workbook and then referencing that column in the Field Mapping page and Test Suites ddl in the wizard? Thanks in advance.

    I'm getting the same error as Smitha - I can select the source Excel file and when I click next the program shuts down and will not go any further. It also fails when someone on the same team as me runs it but passes when another colleague of mine uses it.
