Run and Monitor Builds

  • Статья

When you use Team Foundation Build to run your builds, you can manually start any defined build. Also, you can monitor the progress of builds in several ways to determine whether they completed successfully or to know when they are ready to use.

For more information about how to schedule a build to start automatically instead of manually, see Create a Basic Build Definition.
