Team Foundation Server 2015 Released Today

We’re excited (along with everyone else) that Team Foundation Server 2015 has been released TODAY! This is the biggest release in a long time!

Now Available to Everyone!

We know many people have been patiently waiting because prior to this 2015 release, these features were only available if you were a Visual Studio Online (VSO) customer.

Release Management for Visual Studio 2015

There’s now an updated version of Release Management for Visual Studio 2015 which provides improved performance in the following areas:

• The release management client launch page
• Interactivity and rendering in other release management client pages
• Integration of TFS security groups and Active Directory
• Create of new release

Awesome Scriptable Build System

The new scriptable build system is awesome because it’s a lot easier to develop and customize application build processes and also enables cross-platform application development. This is really exciting because you can analyze a person’s usage pattern to continuously improve the usability of your app. You can also detect and triage performance issues quicker so you can diagnose the issue. You’re able then to export to Power BI, SQL or your own tools for a deeper analysis. These are all massively huge for mobile application development!

Read Less Code

Now you can read less code while stilling learning more about your code’s design when using Visual Studio Enterprise! Code maps now make it more manageable to:

• Deliver quickly and are more responsive
• Allow you to filter relationships and elements to make maps easier to use
• Have a better catalogued and more intuitive shortcut command menus

Less Limitations & More Flexibility

Another great thing about this release is that it has less limitations and more flexibility for managing work and personalizing Kanban boards, backlog and bug management, work item form, query enhancements and process template enhancements!
