11 Team Foundation Problem Space Fragmented information Fragmented information  Can’t relate and query work items, work, processes and artifacts  Tools sets are incomplete or poorly integrated  Difficulty integrating tools with existing infrastructure Communication is manual Communication is manual  People use the phone or face-to-face  Information is not captured  Distributed development aggravates the problem Life cycle tools are expensive and complex Life cycle tools are expensive and complex  Tools are difficult to learn and use  Developers view tools as “overhead”  Administration costs are high

12 Team Foundation Capabilities Work item tracking Work item tracking  Integrated into development process  Design your own process – Fields, Forms, States, Rules  Extensive linking – bugs, tasks, requirements reports, artifacts  Notifications Source Code Control Source Code Control  Policy based check in  Scalable and robust  Parallel development  Notifications Build automation Build automation  Scripted “nightly” build  Reporting  Integrates many of the Team System tools Reporting Reporting  Automatic data collection  50 Predefined reports Project portal Project portal  Single place to go for high-level project information – specs, builds etc.  Web access work items  Windows Sharepoint Services based

13 Remote Development Remote development is a reality Remote development is a reality  Distributed teams, at-home, offshore A system built for the Internet A system built for the Internet  Web service protocols  Browser-based clients  Compatible with proxies and firewalls  Optimized for high-latency networks

14 Extensibility End user extensibility – process customization and creation End user extensibility – process customization and creation  Work Item Types  Checkin Notes & Policies Third party extensibility Third party extensibility  Tool integration platform – eventing, linking, security  Managed object models  Web service APIs
