I am having a scenario where in I need to migrate the artifacts from HP ALM to VSTS for test management. I know about the ALM API and have worked with that before for exporting defects, and test cases but I am not aware of any such things for VSTS ( am very new with it) and want to create a task and then create a bug with the help of the adapter code and move the details from alm to vsts.
Can anyone please help me get the VSTS API, or some sample adapters based on which I can start coding for the VSTS API?
N.B: I tried finding it over google but no luck till now.
Thanks in advance.
You can try to use OpsHub tool.
Another tool: Microsoft Visual Studio Online Integration
Regarding API, you can try to use VSTS/TFS sdk: Microsoft Team Foundation Server Extended Client. You can check the source code of vstssync migrator (Ove mentioned)
Another option is vstssync migrator created by mrhinsh
https://github.com/nkdAgility/vsts-sync-migration
There is the code to get you started with your adapter.

After migrating the work items from one azure devops environment to another. When rerunning the tool, the tool updates the related links but the discussions are not updating. How can we move over new discussions from the old environment?
Discussions are not migrated as they are part of the REST API, and the Azure DevOps Migration Tools use the ObjectModel...

I build a simple inventory management app. Now I would like to publish it as a single executable file (.exe) including the database and all dependencies. The purpose is to use it offline on another machine. I tried with deployment mode: ``Self-contained`` and file publish option as: ``produce single file``, ``Enable ReadyToRun compilation`` and ``Trim unused assemblies`` in visual studio. But that does not include database niter producing a single file.
Now in this case what should I do? Can anyone help me?

You should create a migration file with command and run it on SQL, or use ci/cd to deploy it.
Pay attention to these links:

Well, I found a solution by myself. By using SQLite Database instate of MSSQL. Since my application is not a multiuser application that will not be an issue. But if you are thinking of a multiuser app you better not use SQLite. You can use it by installing the Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Sqlite plugin.
if anyone finds a better solution let me know.
I'm looking at a migration project to migrate a client from Datamanager to Datastage. I can see that IBM have helpfully added in the Migration Assistant tool, but less helpfully, I cannot find any details on how to actually use it.
I did use it some years ago, and I'm aware that you need to do it in a command line interface and it works by taking an extract file and creating a Datastage job out of it, which is then reinstalled. However I haven't got my notes any more from that process.
If there is a user guide out there for this tool, I'd love to see it.
Cheers

Your starting point would be the IBM support page and then see "How to download the tool" and ensure you have the required version (10.2.1 + Fix Pack 13 + Interim Fix) installed. The user guide PDF is part of the install in the sub-folder "datamanager/migration".
I planned to use Katalon (Free) with Jenkins.
After populating all the headless scripts for several testing over past 3 months I decided to go live on our production servers.
I registered with a new user email id and password and I'm able to login with the credentials here: https://www.katalon.com/sign-in/
However, after downloading the latest katalon from here:
Once downloaded and extracted; I'm unable to use the software with the same credentials i used above to login. I get Unautorized message when trying to Activate the tool.
Note: I do not wish to used the licensed (paid) version but the free version that used to work before.
I was a little concerned reading this thread with the similar issue.
https://forum.katalon.com/t/question-is-katalon-studio-still-free/32780/6
Can you please suggest if I downloaded the incorrect setup, or if, I m missing something activating the tool or if Katalon has actually tricked us into believing this was free which it is no more !! . If so any alternate free solution / tool to katalon ? Please suggest.
Since version 7 of Katalon Studio, CI with Jenkins only is working with Katalon Runtime Engine. This tool is not free.

In my project, test cases located in Jira Zephyr. I have some troubles with Zephyr as you know ( lack of preconditions for test cases, native support for BDD ...). So I decided to switch test management tool to Xray.
I haven't found any solution to migration my test cases from Zephyr to Xray.
After that new issue is:
Is there any problem if i install Xray to Jira account while Zephyr is staying on?
Both plugins uses the issue type "Test", so that's a problem. But you can configure anohter name for the issue type of one plugin, i.e. "zephyr test".
Those 2 tools are two different plugins for JIRA, so they can co-exists and be used in parallel (by the same or different teams).
In order to migrate data you have 3 ways:
Migrate by yourself (complicated)
Ask Xray to help you with the
migration
Ask a 3-rd party consultant/vendor company to help you
with this. Here are a few
