Wednesday, October 29, 2014. 4 Years of TFS and ALM…. In August 2014 Team Foundation Consulting celebrated its 4. Anniversary.

Team Foundation Consulting: May 2015
http://blogs.teamfoundation.co.za/2015_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 6, 2015. Installing and configuring TFS 2015 on-premise xplat build agent. One of the things that really got me exited about TFS 2015 was the cross platform build capability, and that was the first thing that I started to play with as soon as I got hold of the RC. Interestingly enough, in VSO it is fairly easy to setup when you have the "alternate credentials" on VSO, but, as I was to discover, there are a few more things that you need to do before you can get it working on-prem. Once you ...

Wednesday, July 30, 2014. TFS 2013 Pre Build Script Assembly Version Updates. I was looking at a "simple" way to update the TFS build definitions and adjust the Assembly versions of the projects being compiled. I came across this article ( http:/ msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn376353.aspx. Leveraging the pre and post build scripts that are available in the newer build definitions. The problem I had with the scripts included in the TFS Build Extensions. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Team Foundation Consulting: End of TFS 2010 Mainstream Support
http://blogs.teamfoundation.co.za/2015/03/end-of-tfs-2010-mainstream-support.html
Wednesday, March 18, 2015. End of TFS 2010 Mainstream Support. Wow, time flies. I can remember going to the launch and being really exited about the "major" changes that TFS 2010 brought with it. And now, it is at the end of its mainstream support. Looking back, it is amazing how much has changed since TFS 2010 to TFS 2013 and even what is coming in TFS 2015. Here is to some exiting times! BTW: if you are considering upgrading to maintain support, feel free to give us a shout. This blog has moved!

Tuesday, June 17, 2014. Last week Microsoft hosted a Release Management for Team Foundation Server 2013 talk where I ran through managing releases using Release Management. I am pleased to say that there was literarily not a seat available, and the audience was responsive and interested. This is obviously a topic that is on a lot of people's minds. For more information, you can visit the official site. If you are interested, I have uploaded the slides here. Links to this post. Wednesday, June 11, 2014.
