TFS 2017 Can't Create a Test Plan

问题:

I'm trying to set up a Manual Test Plan in a new Team Project, but the Test area does not match the online documentation for TFS 2017.

3. Go to the Test hub. Create a test plan for your current sprint.

https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/docs/test/manual-exploratory-testing/getting-started/create-a-test-plan

The Test Hub in our installation contains the following sections: Test Plans | Runs | Machines and this does not match the Test Hub in the documentation (missing [Configurations], [Parameters], and [Load Test])

In the screenshots in the documentation, there is a "+" in the left hand pane that is missing from our installation. "Test Plans" contains

[Show tests from child suites][Expand All][Collapse All]

Assume that no explicit action has been taken to manually configure permissions. I am acting as a Collection Administrator.

Can someone help me find out how to create a Test Plan inside TFS 2017?

Since the creation is in the web. First you need to check your access level.

Basic is the default access level, to users with a TFS client access license (CAL). Basic provides access to most features, except for Test.

So suggest you use Stakeholder or VS Enterprise access. More detail about this check Change access levels

Moreover, for doing any of the test management capabilities, you need the Test Manager Extension or Test Pro with MSDN.

In TFS 2017, to create a test plan you need to install Test Manager extension for your team project collections.

It includes test planning, authoring, execution and tracking.
