TFS 2010 Workflow Auto Transition

Question

How can I make a work item to automatically tansit from a new to an assigned state when I fill out the Assigned To field. I.e. I reported an error, so her condition is new. Now I fill in (select from the drop-down list) the Assigned To field, and I want it to automatically go into the Assigned state (active state).

Please, help.

What you want cannot be done out of the box with TFS.

However, I created an open source project called TFS Aggregator to provide the support you are looking for.

:

 <AggregatorItem operationType="String" linkType="Self" workItemType="Bug">
    <Mappings>      
      <Mapping targetValue="Assigned" inclusive="Or">
        <SourceValue>New</SourceValue>
      </Mapping>
    </Mappings>
    <Conditions>
      <Condition leftField="Assigned To" operator="NotEqualTo" rightValue=""/>
      <Condition leftField="State" operator="NotEqualTo" rightValue="Removed"/>
      <Condition leftField="State" operator="NotEqualTo" rightValue="Done"/>
      <Condition leftField="State" operator="NotEqualTo" rightValue="Ready For Test"/>
  <Condition leftField="State" operator="NotEqualTo" rightValue="In Progress"/>
    </Conditions>
    <TargetItem name="State"/>
    <SourceItem name="State"/>
  </AggregatorItem>

Assigned from New.
