[remkop-of]

Installed product versions

• Export/Import Buid Definition extension: where to fould (installed 6-12-2016)

Description

Build Definitions can also consist of Task groups. The actual taks group isn't exported now. The task is there in the build definition

Steps to recreate

1 Create a task group 2 Add task group to a build definition 3 create an export 4 import it in a differnt project or TFS instance

Current behavior

Task group is added to the build definition correctly. But states: "This task is no longer installed."

Expected behavior

That during the export also the task group is exported

[rsaugier]

To put it differently, even if the task groups are not exported along with the build definitions, they should be reassociated to them correctly.

For example:

Steps in TFS 2018 (16.131.28601.4):

Given some build definitions that depend on some task groups:

1. Export some task groups
2. Export build definitions that depend on the exported task groups
3. Then in a another project, import the task groups
4. Import build definitions that depend on them

Expected behavior Task groups should be reassociated to build definitions.

Current behavior Build definitions contain the task groups, but with the error "This task is no longer installed."
