Introduction

I perform the Team Foundation Server (TFS) 11 Beta upgrade from the day one of the Beta release, I read many blog articles, MSDN, I also saw many videos, so I will not re-invent the wheel by rewriting what I have read or view through out all the previous period, but I will put the main point of the new features or improvement and I will put my feedback and realization about these features.

So the first question why we upgrade specially that the RTM not released yet?

This always one of my main question all the time for any new technologies or framework, unfortunately my answer was far from what I believe now, I used to trust of my experience and my existing solution, but what I found? I found that all my solutions are out dated and there are elegant solutions there, perfect, fast, easy and I just missed all of them all the time, eventually I realize the truth! the world keeping change and there are always improvement and your perfect solution today will be the worst tomorrow :-(

The new technologies means new features and enhance for the old, some people said and new bugs too! especially in the beta, absolutely right, but ……

It’s always what you get more and more bigger than what you face of issues or bugs and you know that if you really master your tools, it’s a long story to tell so enough talk and let’s see what I decide.

So this what I believed now!

This why the upgrade is a must for me and I always waiting for it and guess what? it has more than I expected :-)

Getting Religion with TFS for Agile Software Development!



In this 5 minutes video, I introduced TFSEG Values and Principles, I believe these principles will help many people and it may change their life if they are believers, it will also put the roadmap for our contributors that want to join the user group and tell them what we believe, to summarize the video, it will show the value of automation, teamwork, code guidance, rules, unit testing, etc and how all these fit with Agile and TFS Team Foundation Server.

Each principle may need a whole day from me to represent but the presentation only about 5 minutes, because it just introduce these principles, so if anyone has a question or inquiry please don’t hesitate to contact me, I may create a details video later based on the community demand and questions.

Waiting for your feedback and questions

For the prize of the video just see this post
