TFS
Team Foundation Server
Team Build: Part 1
I’ve had the fortune of being involved in some pretty complex and elegant Team Build configurations. I’ve started to blog about individual points several times, but ended up figuring that I should instead write a series of posts about common goals and general Team Build approaches.
