Details

    Description

      What

      • Validate that creation wizards (project & file) contain sensible steps, are informative, and behave symmetrically in Qt Creator, Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code
      • Validate that the projects created in Qt Creator and Design Studio are mutally useful in the other tool.

      Why

      • Any friction and non-intuitiveness will be experienced by the majority of users as this is commonly used functionality. 

      Dependencies

      • Visual Studio Code integration
      • Visual Studio integration 
      • Qt Design Studio

      User stories / Acceptance criteria

      • As a user I want to create projects in one tool and continue using the created project in another tool. 
      • As a user I want to create the project using the templates and the same attributes, irrespective of the tool in which I create it (this likely does not concern Qt Design Studio).
      • As a user I want to create files using the templates and the same attributes, irrespective of the tool in which I create it. 

      Tasks

      • Validate the iconography of the project templates.
      • Validate the iconography of the file templates. 
      • Remove compat-instances of the templates (since Qt 5 is deprecated by the time Qt Creator 17 is released). 
      • Ensure that user-displayed content is in synchrnoy with equivalent Visual Studio / Visual Studio Code wizards (number and names of the templates, descriptive text)
      • (Continuity beyond the original definition) Create the collaboration-related user stories for the Qt tools portfolio - essentially: a project begun in tool X can be continued in tool Y without need of manual editing of project files
