TFS

Team Foundation Server (TFS) is a software tool that facilitates communication among team members and manages the version control of code. It ensures that changes to the code are recorded and maintained, and that they are integrated appropriately. TFS is currently undergoing development to improve its functionality.From: Fostering soft skills in project-oriented learning within an agile atmosphere [2018], Microsimulation of mobility assignment within an activity-based travel demand forecasting model [2023]

The development of this extension enables decreasing the resources and to work with only three assistants. As part of the project-oriented approach, the students are required to manage the project, including balancing of the tasks among the team members, such that everyone experiences different tasks (i.e. planning, design, coding and testing). The graphs in Figure 3 show the change sets distribution among students during the three sprints. Based on this information, it can be said that student ‘Be’ was more focused on the code than the other students and on the other hand student ‘Da’ has barely coded. This is an example of an effective report that can give a good picture to the course staff about the students' (independent) work on the project. TFS also supports the communication of the team and the process of ensuring that versions of the code are recorded and maintained, thus changes are managed and integrated appropriately.
