Team Foundation Server 2012 – An Introduction

TFS – An Introduction:

                          In my organization, we have recently started using Team Foundation Server 2012. Previously we have worked on the Visual Source Safe for version controlling. Adopting with this new technology is hard at first. After using day by day, it’s awesome. Now I felt that TFS is really awesome product from Microsoft.

TFS not just give an option for version control. Its gives more apart from version controlling like branching etc.  The below are the few important advantages of TFS. If I, missed or added wrongly feel free to contact me or leave a comment.

• With branching we can easily merge the changes between the projects.
• We can control the entire project activity with TFS.
• We can define the source code standards (here called policies) and check against the source code we wrote in Visual studio. That is if any of the code violates the coding standards, we can easily figure it out with this feature.
• We can assign task to entire team and fill the completed and completion dates.
• The above are the some  advantages of TFS. In the feature articles I will give the detail explanation of TFS. Keep in touch!

Hope this helps to understand the basic of TFS.
