This document discusses application lifecycle management (ALM) using Visual Studio Team Foundation Server (TFS). It defines ALM and contrasts it with the software development lifecycle (SDLC). TFS supports ALM through features for planning, architecture, testing, and tracking work items and code changes. The document demonstrates planning, tracking progress, and linking work items in TFS. It also covers traceability, release management, testing types, and the typical process when a tester finds a bug.
