Need VSTS/TFS Help? How Do I...?

I can't tell you how many times I've searched for information about how to do something, only to find it AFTER spending hours doing it by trial-and-error. Hopefully, I can save you some time the next time you need to figure out how to do something in Team System. Recently, I found an awesome link to a series of "How Do I?" videos on MSDN that answer many of these questions, such as:

  • Automate Team Foundation Build 2008
  • Easily Bind Data to .NET Unit Tests
  • Use the Visual Studio Team System Test Load Agent
  • Add Conditions to Web Tests to Determine If Web Pages are Returning What You Expect?
  • Create a Data-Bound Web Test
  • Use the Class Designer in Visual Studio
  • Use the Data Generation Wizard to Create a Data-bound Data Generation Plan
  • And MUCH, MUCH more! (Yes, I watched too much TV as a kid! Probably still do...)

Here's the link: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vsts2008/bb507749.aspx

Here's an additional "How Do I?" series for Team Foundation. This one covers some basic stuff, like creating and managing work items, and creating reports, etc...
