You can use the Team Foundation command-line command TFSBuild start with the Windows Task Scheduler service to perform recurring or nightly builds. Recurring or scheduled build services are not available in the Team Foundation user interface in Visual Studio For more information, see How to: Configure a Scheduled Build (Command Line).
Continuous build integration functionality is not included with Team Foundation; however, the TFSBuild start command can be invoked whenever a check in is made into Team Foundation source control.
If building more than one solution, consider one solution having dependencies on another when determining the order in which they are built. For example, set Solution1 to be built before Solution2 in the case where Solution2 has a dependency on Solution1.
By default, the drop directory is not automatically created as a share and therefore is not available for publishing builds and tests results. You must manually establish a share and add write permissions to the Windows directory and share permissions for both the account used to run the Team Foundation Build service for dropping builds and for the tester's account for publishing test results.
