Both Scrum and Team Foundation Server have received a large amount of attention the last few years and it is hard to separate the theoretical rhetoric from practical guidance. This presentation demonstrates the practical lessons learned from implementing both for a new .NET software development department. The focus will be on working with TFS and Scrum on a daily basis with real world examples of both successes and failures. Specific topics to be covered include:
* Overview of Scrum
* Overview of TFS
* Walk through of implementing Scrum and other agile concepts using TFS and VSTS.
* Demos of the Conchango Scrum plug-in for TFS, extending TFS with new templates, taking advantage of the TFS/Excel integration, and more.
