Microsoft Team Foundation Server (TFS) 2010

OAG offers integration between EPM Live Agile Work Engine and TFS 2010. Companies can benefit from the rich features in the EPM Live's Agile Planner and the product management dashboard.

Microsoft Team Foundation Server offering source control, data collection, reporting, and project tracking, and is intended for collaborative software development projects. It is available either as stand-alone software, or as the server side back end platform for Visual Studio Team System (VSTS).

Source control

Team Foundation Server provides a source control repository, called Team Foundation Version Control (TFVC). Unlike Microsoft's previous source control offering, Visual SourceSafe (VSS), which relied on a file-based storage mechanism, Team Foundation source control stores all code, as well as a record of all changes and current check-outs in a SQL Server database.

Reporting

Reporting is another major component of Team Foundation Server. Using the combined data for work items, changesets, and information provided by Team Build and results from Test Agents, a variety of reports can be created.

Project portal

On a per-project basis, TFS also creates a SharePoint site for the project, which can be used to track the progress of the project as well as to explore the work items and source controlled documents in the project, which are presented via the document library.

Shared services

TFS provides a handful of services that can be used for integration with other applications like IDEs and Project Management Systems. The linking service allows loosely coupled relationships to be created between items, for example a bug item and the source code revision(s) it applies to.
