TFS or Team Foundation Server, a Microsoft product, provides version/source control, build management, project reporting, team/project web portals, project and task/defect tracking in a unified server. Its focus is to improve collaboration in software development projects.
There is some of the new terminology with TFS.
Team Project is a group of artifacts, including source code, reports, and documents, used by a team and its members to perform and track a related set of work. A team project is like a project vob in IBM Rational ClearCase. Artifacts can only belong to one and only one team project.
Work Items define work activities needed to fix a bug, complete a project or support a customer scenario. In TFS, work activities are further defined. projects have six different work item types (Product Backlog Item, Bug, Sprint Backlog Item, Sprint, Impediment and Sprint Retrospective).
Areas are used to divide team projects into smaller logical or functional parts.
Iterations are used to define development phases or sprint/scrums during the team project’s lifecycles.
