I have a usecase in which I want to track only EPICs in JIRA.
I created a dashboard and used a filter but the EPIC are not displayed.
Boards and dashboards are different in Jira.
What i understand that you want to show only "Epics" on a scrum board. This is possible. You need only to add the active sprint to each Epic.
This is not possible from he backlog. You need to edit each Epic then add active sprint on the sprint field.

In TFS 2015 we are using the Scrum process template. When I 'group by people' only the tasks are showing up on the board, but not the PBI's (product backlog items) or bugs.
How can I get the PBI's and Bugs that are assigned to my team to show up when I group the backlog by people? Is this possible?
You can't see User Story if you use "Group by: People".
But you can see bugs, you need to configure it according the picture:
Another option: you can install Query based boards extension, This extension allows you to visualize the result of work item queries on a board. The order by clauses of the query are respected on the board.
After installing the extension, navigate to the Work hub, and select Queries. When opening a query, a new tab called Board is available to visualize the results on a board.
Bugs could be added by default, the detail steps please follow the
official tutorial-- Show bugs on backlogs and boards
However, for PBIs, you need to do it by customizing your process
or team project, based on the process model you use. For details,
please refer this link: Add other work item types to your backlogs
or boards
On the backlog board in a scrum project in TFS 2017, I can see the number of test cases linked to a backlog item. I can also see the status of the tests in some instances. I would like to see something similar in my current sprint. How can I get visibility to test cases linked to a product backlog item in the current sprint without clicking into a backlog item?
Show the tests/test cases under Sprint Board is not supported. There is a user voice here submitted to request for this feature, you can go and vote it up to achieve it in future.
As a workaround for now, you can create a task and link it to test case.
You can reference this similar thread: Visual Studio Team Services - Assigned Test Cases on Sprint Board
How can I see the Epic related with the user story on the own user story?
Is there option on TFS of Microsoft?
Epics are hierarchically above Features. Features are mapped to Epics, like user story items are mapped to Features.
There is no way to directly see the Epic through the own user story itself. However, as a workaround, you can LINK work items and you can display them as a Tree List,see it through a backlog.
Also have a check of this link for further information on how to use TFS to support epics, release trains, and multiple backlogs: Implement Scaled Agile Framework® to support epics, release trains, and multiple backlogs
I'm using TFS (web) and using the scrum template. On the main page/dashboard, under Work->Create New->Epic. I have created an Epic. This epic is associated to Sprint 5 in my project. I've also created sub story associated with that epic. However, I'm unable to see that story, or the epic under sprint 5.
When I query the epic, TFS displays it, so I know for sure that exists. But it doesn't list in Sprint.
Please help.
Typically Epics don't belong to Sprints, they are higher level. When you are in the sprint planning screen or the sprint taskboard view, it will show requirements (ie user stories, use cases, pbi's, bugs, defects) and tasks.
You can always create a WI query to return all PBI's and Epics assigned to a Sprint if you want.
Is it possible to stack order the PBIs in the sprint view of TFS. I've been able to do this by modifying order fields in excel but would like the same functionality as the product backlog.
Is there a configuration file I need to modify?
There currently is no way to do this from the Sprint board. It uses the same order as the Product Backlog though. This makes sense from a Scrum perspective, since the Product Owner defines the order of the backlog and his domain is the Product Backlog.
