Installing the Microsoft components
A fully functional TA-TFS integrated system requires that a number of components of Microsoft’s Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) environment be installed and configured.
- For test scenarios using Visual Studio 2015 or Team Foundation Server 2015, whether on-premise or cloud-based, support for launching automated tests is limited to Microsoft Test Manager 2015 with Microsoft test controller and Microsoft test agent for Visual Studio 2013 Update 5 (Note that these are Microsoft-imposed constraints).
- Running automated tests from Team Foundation Server’s web portal for Microsoft Visual Studio is currently not supported.
TA-TFS integration requires installation of the following software components of the Microsoft ALM. Please refer to the appropriate Microsoft resources for information on the installation and configuration of these items:
Unless you use MTM, you do not have to install it, Test Controller and Test Agent.
TestArchitect Client and Microsoft Test Agent must be installed on the same machine.
For the TA-TFS plug-in,
If you use MTM, the plug-in and Visual Studio must be installed on the same machine.
If you use the Test hub, it is unnecessary to access the Test hub on the machine where Visual Studio is installed.
In order to import TFS test cases or tests suites into TA, or upload TA test modules/test cases/test results to TFS, the TFS Object Model must exist on the machine hosting your TA repository server. This package can be installed once you install Visual Studio; alternatively, it may be installed as a stand-alone package.
