Our team have been using Rational Team Concert (
)
to manage the day to day issues. Users are able to export the list of
the work items based on the predefined queries to .csv file.
I have created a perl script to visualise the .csv file in
Freemind.
You can find the script
here. To use it:
- Create a query which contains the following columns (with the same order): "Filed Against", "Type", "Id", "Summary", "Owned By", "Status", "Priority", "Severity", "Parent", "Depends_On", "Modified_By", "Modified Date"
- run the Query
- download the query result as .csv file
- run the script: cat exported_work_items.csv | freemind.pl > converted_freemind.mm
- open converted_freemind.mm with Freemind.
You
will get something like below. By clicking the arrows at the beginning
of the node you will be directed to the Work Item in a web browser.
The red arrows are the dependencies.
