title: Adding columns to scrum board
body: <p>I am using TFS2013 and have spent a lot of effort editing the Task WIT process to allow two new states for my tasks... "Testing" and "Blocked"... I have edited the Task.xml file on the server and successfully added the two new states and the valid transitions to and from these states.</p>
  
  <p>The states do show up when editing a task and the flow to and from the new states seem to work fine.</p>
  
  <p>The problem is I cannot figure out how to add these new states as swimlanes on the task board. All of the Microsoft documentation states the columns are defined by the process states.</p>
  
  <p>Please not this is the "In-Sprint" task board... NOT the Kanban board (that one is easy to edit)</p>
  
  <p>Here is the XMl that I have added to the Task WIT Xml :</p>
  
  <pre><code>    &lt;STATE value="Testing"&gt;
        &lt;FIELDS&gt;
          &lt;FIELD refname="Microsoft.VSTS.Common.ClosedDate"&gt;
            &lt;EMPTY /&gt;
          &lt;/FIELD&gt;
          &lt;FIELD refname="Microsoft.VSTS.Common.ClosedBy"&gt;
            &lt;ALLOWEXISTINGVALUE /&gt;
            &lt;EMPTY /&gt;
          &lt;/FIELD&gt;
        &lt;/FIELDS&gt;
      &lt;/STATE&gt;
      &lt;STATE value="Blocked"&gt;
        &lt;FIELDS&gt;
          &lt;FIELD refname="Microsoft.VSTS.Common.ClosedDate"&gt;
            &lt;EMPTY /&gt;
          &lt;/FIELD&gt;
          &lt;FIELD refname="Microsoft.VSTS.Common.ClosedBy"&gt;
            &lt;ALLOWEXISTINGVALUE /&gt;
            &lt;EMPTY /&gt;
          &lt;/FIELD&gt;
        &lt;/FIELDS&gt;
      &lt;/STATE&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>......</p>
  
  <pre><code>    &lt;TRANSITION from="Active" to="Testing"&gt;
        &lt;REASONS&gt;
          &lt;DEFAULTREASON value="Development Completed" /&gt;
        &lt;/REASONS&gt;
      &lt;/TRANSITION&gt;
      &lt;TRANSITION from="Testing" to="Closed"&gt;
        &lt;REASONS&gt;
          &lt;DEFAULTREASON value="Testing Passed" /&gt;
        &lt;/REASONS&gt;
      &lt;/TRANSITION&gt;
      &lt;TRANSITION from="Testing" to="Active"&gt;
        &lt;REASONS&gt;
          &lt;DEFAULTREASON value="Testing failed - Fixing" /&gt;
        &lt;/REASONS&gt;
      &lt;/TRANSITION&gt;
      &lt;TRANSITION from="Testing" to="New"&gt;
        &lt;REASONS&gt;
          &lt;DEFAULTREASON value="Testing failed - Ready for fix" /&gt;
        &lt;/REASONS&gt;
      &lt;/TRANSITION&gt;
      &lt;TRANSITION from="Active" to="Blocked"&gt;
        &lt;REASONS&gt;
          &lt;DEFAULTREASON value="Impediment Encountered" /&gt;
        &lt;/REASONS&gt;
      &lt;/TRANSITION&gt;
      &lt;TRANSITION from="Blocked" to="Active"&gt;
        &lt;REASONS&gt;
          &lt;DEFAULTREASON value="Impediment Removed" /&gt;
        &lt;/REASONS&gt;
      &lt;/TRANSITION&gt;
      &lt;TRANSITION from="Blocked" to="Closed"&gt;
        &lt;REASONS&gt;
          &lt;DEFAULTREASON value="Closed due to Impediment" /&gt;
        &lt;/REASONS&gt;
      &lt;/TRANSITION&gt;
