1. DevOps is the union of people, process, and products to enable
continuous delivery of value to our end users.
2. The contraction of “Dev” and “Ops” refers to replacing
Development and Operations to create multidisciplinary teams
that now work together with shared and efficient practices and
tools.
3. Continuous integration means starting an automated build (and
possibly running tests) whenever new code is committed to or
checked into the team project's source control repository.

organization using limited resources. To develop TFS
dashboard which contains integration of status of each builds,
releases, testing, defect metric and report statistics in one view.

Problem definition

Department of
The purpose of this project is to create dashboard for
management and Dev Teams such that it
• Reduces time for management.
• Enables better project visibility.
• Establishes greater confidence in development team.
• To ensure live updates of the status of builds, releases, Defect
Matric and testing for all the end users.

Objectives

Department of
1. Creation of dashboard is achieved through the TFS
Dashboard
2. TFS Dashboard intern make use of TFS Queries using Visual
Studio.
3. It also make use of Build-in Widgets in the TFS Dashboard.
4. MVC application has provided an input for Iframe widgets.
5. MarkDown language for Report generation.

• Segregation of tabs in the TFS dashboard depicts different
information in each tab.
• Dashboard displays the overview page which contains
information about the product, team member, backlogs etc.
This is achieved using markdown language and links.
• Next tabs tell about defects, defects in details, release details,
build details and testing trends respectively.
• Provide detail information within fraction of the seconds just
by one click on the respective dashboard tabs.

Deliverables

Department of
• This is useful for management which provides detailed
information on defect metric i.e., defect raised by each team.
• Meanwhile it also displays the count of defects resolved by
team members.
• This will give the count of defects raised by team members.

• DevOps, Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery of
the TFS which play a major role in the development of
dashboard.
• Dashboard makes use of available feature of TFS and displays
the effective dashboard for management and Development
teams.
• This provides the central location for all the users to access,
interact and analyze up-to-date information such that the live
data is visible to the end users.
• This increases the efficiency with faster access to business
intelligence.
• Dashboard is time saving for all the end users.
Conclusion

Department of
• It decreases the down time of severe production issues through
Dev-ops by the integration of the product development, by
setting up automation build and test environment using team
foundation server in which developer can verify his changes.
• Dashboard contain the releases and build details with charts,
defect details or count of defects opened, resolved, planned,
raised, in team and MVC application which depicts the
software excellence metric details in the table format with
color indication.
