I would like to grant my Q/A team permissions to create an edit bugs in TFS. I could just throw them into the Contributors group, but I would rather create a Q/A group and assign it permissions specific to creating work items. What permissions do I need to grant them. (TFS 2008)
Right-click the folder or file for which you want to set permissions, and then click Properties. In the Properties dialog box, click the Security tab. In the Add users and groups area, select Team Foundation Server Group to set permissions for a Team Foundation Server group. Otherwise, select Windows user or group.
Anyone who has write access to a project can assign work items, including users with Basic and Stakeholder access. Note the following: You can assign a work item only to users that have been added to a project or team. You can assign a work item to one and only one user at a time.
To add a custom field, add field rules, or change the label of a field on a work item form, you modify the work item type (WIT) or types that use the field. Follow the customization sequence that matches your process model. To change a field attribute or rename a field, use the witadmin command line tool.
To add several tags at one time, type a comma between tags. Tags are case sensitive. By default, all Contributors and Stakeholders of public projects are granted permissions to add new and existing tags. Stakeholders in private projects can add tags that are already defined, but not add new tags.
It's actually going to be found under Area security. Within VS 2008:
Team-->Team Project Settings-->Areas and Iterations
menu.Security...
button.Edit work items in this node
