Migrate to Team Foundation Server

Question

We\'ve got a new server with TFS installed. The current environment is very usual, source code managed with SourceSafe 2005 and integrated with Visual Studio 2008 Enterprise

Answer 1

Note that there is also a web-client for TFS 2008, TeamSystem Web Access, which will be incorporated in the total install in the next TFS 2010. So even external clients or project managers can read and modify bugs/work items without installing VisualStudio.

If you use this, be sure to also install the sp1 (and hotfix)

Answer 2

1. You can migrate SourceSafe to TFS using this tool.
2. TFS provides source control capabilities so after migrating you no longer would need to use SourceSafe.
3. You install the Team Explorer client to integrate Visual Studio with TFS.
4. TFS does also include bug tracking/reporting capabilities. You can check out this tool for migrating Bugzilla to TFS.
