Administering Team Foundation Server 2013 covers the critical as well as the less obvious aspects of managing a TFS server in a variety of development and test environments. Coverage includes basic installation, initial configuration, maintenance, and common trouble shooting techniques, sizing and performance considerations.
The book explains how TFS can help you incorporate Git source control (probably the most popular open source code control system) in your TFS environment to gain the best features of both. You'll learn how to set up TFS to match how you develop software.
The book covers the whole development process, along with practical advice on implementing Agile methodologies that blend well with TFS’s existing features.
In addition the author also dives into using TFS in your team covering subjects like setting up accounts for different roles, how to manage users and groups--plus what you need to know about TFS security and running a secure team.
No discussion of a centralized system like TFS would be complete without a learning how to backup and restore it, and the author covers what you will need to know maintain your TFS including the backup and restore details required to properly plan for disaster recovery.
In addition, the book also covers what you need to know about TFS functionality in creating and setting up collections and projects, how to manage the build process with Team Build (including setting it up and deploying build server and agents), using templates to speed up the creation of builds, building multi-platform solutions, adding quality gates to your process, and getting code coverage information.
The book also offers comprehensive information about testing, using tools like Microsoft Test Manager, Microsoft Lab Manager, CodedUI, Web, and other testing features.
