Following a MSDN web page, I am trying to manually run mstest within my tfsbuild.proj and put the results into the pass/fail logic so the build will fail if this particular test fails. It's kind of like running a FxCop or something else from CMD and capturing a "0" or "1" and force-fail the build. MSTest /testcontainer:test.dll /publish...

In projects in which the workspace has only one working folder, my build scripts work great. Now that I am working with a new project that required 2 working folders, all of the checkout and checkin commands of my previous script fail, with no files found.

I'm using Visual Studio 2008 and discovered the shelve/unshelve function for me and became a great fan of it. But there is one thing that annoys me.

Setting up a new team build in tfs build 2008, you're forced to select a .sln file for your build definition. I've read through Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.Targets, and from what I understand, all team build does is convert the silly .sln format to msbuild in tfsbuild.proj on-the-fly, and then build that. So what you end up with is ...
