"I like its MTM (Microsoft Test Manager) section which gives us options to create various test plans and add test cases into it."
"The most valuable feature from my point of view is project management, which includes user stories as well as task management."
"The most valuable features of TFS are bug reporting and its high performance."
"The solution's speed has room for improvement."
"Parallel execution: It would help it multiple executions could be done at the same time."
"The dashboard needs more enhancements."
"They should have design patterns in TFS for the development team, and design patterns for the QA."
"Since the TFS was an on-prem solution, the private network accessibility was restricted."
"I would like to see TFS improve its web interface as there are some limitations with IDs and the integration behind it and with open-source tools like VS Code."
"The project management side should be addressed and the project and release planning should be somewhat extended."
"They have room for improvement in merging the source code changes for multiple developers across files. It is very good at highlighting the changes that the source code automatically does not know how to handle, but it's not very good at reporting the ones that it did automatically. There are times when we have source code that gets merged, and we lose the changes that we expected to happen. It can get a little confusing at times. They can just do a little bit better on the merging of changes for multiple developers."
"The user interface could improve and test management was not useful in TFS."
"In the next release, I would like them to include integration for various projects, similar to what JIRA has, and they could create this feature on the dashboard."
