Summary

Paul Stovell, the founder of Octopus Deploy, discusses the challenges and future plans for integrating Octopus Deploy with Microsoft Team Foundation Server (TFS). Unlike the seamless integration with JetBrains TeamCity, combining TFS and Octopus often requires custom MSBuild scripts and workflow changes, which Stovell aims to simplify. The goal is to enable automatic release creation and deployment with Octopus immediately after a Team Build completes, without necessitating any workflow adjustments. This integration might be achieved by embedding the feature within Octopus or developing an external service to bridge the two platforms. Stovell encourages users of TFS and Octopus to participate in a brief survey to assist in shaping the integration's development.
