I am trying to add a BuildStep to the AfterBuild target in MSBuild and I am using the following <Target Name="AfterCompile"> <ItemGroup> <TestAssemblies Include="$(OutDir)\DataStoreUnitTests.dll" /> </ItemGroup> <BuildStep Name="Run unit Tests" TeamFoundationServerUrl="$(TeamFoundationServerUrl)" ...
Can the TFS proxy be installed on Windows XP? I have an environment that I am not allowed to run a Windows Server; however, it is offsite, so a proxy would be very helpful. ...
We recently moved to Team Foundation Server 2008 from Source Safe. We are setting up some automated builds and have run into some issues with the publish of click once apps that seem to require additional installs on the build server. I've seen posts that indicate that the Visual Studio IDE needs to be installed. I've also seen posts t...
I'm about to begin working on a collaborative effort with another vendor. The vendor has the source code and an SVN repository, while we have TFS. I'm interesting in using the Work Item tracking available in TFS but use SVN as the source control. Does anyone know if this is possible? Another option I think would be to have some kind of ...
I haven't found any good explanation of this problem, so I'm hoping someone can shed some light on it. My thought is that this is "just the way it is", but I would like to understand a little better anyways. Here is my situation: I have a main branch, and a development branch(dev). Most developers are working in Main, but for my speci...
I'm trying to migrate to TFS from VSS and I need to be able to show what files were checked in between two releases. In VSS we would just label the code for a release and view history between labels and generate a report to show the checkins and the comments. Is there a way to get similar results with TFS? Or show the differences between...
This question is a derivative of a previous question posted :here I have a project that contains code that is consumed by many other projects. Specifically, one folder in this parent project has been branched to dependent child projects. We have since made changes in the parent project and checked them in. In Source Control Explorer,...
Hi I'm writing a time registration web project where users are able to write time related to TFS Work Items. This involves searching for a Work Item Id and displaying information about the Work item in the web, e.g. description. This project is working properly but I'm getting complaints about the website being slow when user is access...
We have recently built a new TFS 2008 Team Build server. I don't want users putting their builds in the default temp directory that is pointed to by $Temp for the Build Agent, but I also don't want to force developers to change the path to somewhere else - this runs the risk of developers either (a) not bothering, or (b) making paths tha...
I have a very strange situation.... After migrating from StarTeam to TFS (using TimlyMigration == awesome) there is one oddity. When I look at any given file in the Source Control view, I see all the history that was migrated. However if anybody else on the project looks at the file, the don't see the history. it sounds like a permiss...
Has anyone come across with something that tells who has how much contribution in the the given repository (SubVersion or Team Foundation Server) e-g say there are 100 lines of code in 2 files; out of which khurram has written 30 lines and jhon has written 70 lines...something using TFS' Annotation and/or SubVersion' Blame (on each file...
How can I list the last x files I checked in to TFS? ...
I am automating my build process using TeamFoundation and I need to choose what projects to compile according to the .proj file from the build. Here is the full scenario: I have a .proj file which uses a .sln file in order to compile a solution which contains 2 websites. The .sln file is configured to compile both websites in Release co...
Hi there, We migrated from VSS to TFS about 6 months ago. Our way of storing projects was that we grouped them by category (Windows App, Web App, Infopath, SQLScripts, deprecated). Under the 'Windows App' workspace we might have 3 .NET projects. The 'Web App' might have 3, etc, etc. VSS was used more just to store the code repository ...
Hello *, I am trying to use tf.exe command line to setup a new workspace. I don't like the idea installing Team Explorer and therefore required Visual Studio. Running tested command from the other machine where VS is installed causes security exception on this one since I am trying to connect to the TFS via https. I get the error strin...
Hi I have installed TFS on a single server and configured it completely as mentioned in the documentations and created a Project using MSF for agile process. Now when I'm trying to browse to the reports of the project site (http://tfs/Sites/MyProject) I get the following error: The path of the item '/MyProject/Bug Rates' is not valid. ...
Normally projects consist of a set of non-source code files like interface images (PSDs, JPGs,...). How can we managing these types of files with TFS and how graphic designers can check-in or out their image files to use them in applications like Photoshop? ...
I have succesfully added a custom build step to my TFS Team Build script, however, after my build fails (as intended by my custom build step), I want to add a URL to my custom failure report in the "Summary" section at the top of the build report. This is the section that says... "Build Name:" "Requested by:" "Team project:" etc How can...
"New Build Definition" in Team Explorer doesn't allow you to force a build to run more frequently than once every 24 hours. Is this possible? I want the tests to run every hour regardless of whether any changes have been checked in. I think this is possible by creating a scheduled task but I'd rather keep the solution in TFS if possibl...
For about a week now I try to set up a Dynamics AX 2009 team development environment, and keep hitting roadblock after roadblock (mostly about setting up TFS). Are there any working installation instructions for using Dynamics AX Team Server with Team Foundation Server 2008? Has anyone ever got this combination (AX TS & TFS) up and run...
