tfs2013 - No way to group work items into releases in TFS 2015? -


my team starting use tfs 2015 update 1 on premise manage development process. have set server , defined custom states , transitions work items better map our process. start with, taking advantage of kanban board , not attempting use iterations variety of reasons won't here.

my problem using tfs plan releases. specifically, don't see way group features , user stories specific release. of googling has turned many articles involving microsoft release management, installed , configured it, absolutely overkill team trying right now. i'm not trying automate deployments different environments @ moment, need way group work items encapsulates concept of release in tfs. there no way this? best can come right further modify work item templates either provide simple "release" field pick list, or define type of work item can group others into. seems glaring oversight ms perspective, i'm hoping i'm missing something.

grouping work releases can done in couple of ways, remember concept of "release plan" doesn't explicitly exist in tfs. release management covers "release production", doesn't cover planning.

ways plan releases:

  • one way create release iteration, works when you're not working on multiple releases in parallel , finish 1 release before working on next. release iteration used default, has been removed product in favor of teams delivering sprints , teams doing continuous delivery.

    project root + release 1.2   + sprint 1   + sprint 2

  • another option use tags. tag work items tag signifies it's targeted specific sprint.

  • use marker workitem, on backlog place 1 work item stands out ### end of release 1 ### workitem below not part of release. technique fits more agile way of working , more shows contents of release floating thing.

  • create custom release workitem, link other workitems work item target release.

  • and option create picklist on *custom workitem field** option.

css - Make div keyboard-scrollable in jQuery Mobile? -

from can tell, although jquery-mobile-powered pages can contain divs overflow set scroll or auto, , these divs can scrolled one-screen bar or mouse wheel, cannot scrolled using arrow keys, page-up/page-down, or home/end. instead, official "page" div (with data-role="page") absorbs input. perhaps other divs can't acquire focus, i'm not sure. is there way around this? edit: jsfiddle of simple example: https://jsfiddle.net/qogz0shx/ <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquerymobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile.min.js"> </script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile-1.4.5.css"/> <style> #outer { overflow:scroll; height: 50vh; width: 50vw; } #inner { height: 500vh; width: 500vw; } &l
