Shared Steps Migration needs to be done before Test Cases!?

[CBuntrock]

Hello everyone,

It seems to me that the line

CommonTools.WorkItemLink.MigrateSharedSteps(this, sourceWorkItem, targetWorkItem);

in the TfsWorkItemMigrationProcessor Link to fix the actual "Steps" (beside the linking) is only executed when Test Cases are migrated (makes sense of course) but it seems to expect that the Shared Steps do already exist. So when a test case is migrated first, and the corresponding shared step afterwards, the linking will be fine but the step itself not. I tested the same procedure by running test case migration AFTER shared step migration and it seems to work fine this way. Any thoughts on this?

Best,
Chris

Thata a great catch. We maybe need another step on:

Perhaps to split Shared Steps and Test Cases so that the shared steps are done first.
