TFS Server vs VS Online

[Wade]

Hi,

I am trying to connect Test Studio to our TFS server. We are not running the TFS web service so I can't connect to TFS the way that test studio wants.

How do I connect?

I also tried connecting to VS online but I couldn't connect that way either.

Attached it the application log

Hello Wade,

First of all clear for yourself with your IT department whether you are using TFS server or TFS service.

If you are using a local TFS server please check this article. If you are using Team Foundation Service please use this link.

Using the correct credentials you should not experience any issues connecting to the TFS.

I am trying to connect to the TFS Server. There is nothing on our TFS server that is using a port number.

It seems as though whichever method I try, it's trying to connect using TFS services.

By the way, I don't know why this post was moved to this forum. I'm using the Test Studio Client, not the visual studio plugin.

Hello Wade,

Try disconnecting from TFS manually by editing the project's settings file. Please open the file in notepad or notepad ++ and set the source repository to null and isOnline to false.

Here is short demonstration video (no audio).

When done, try connecting to TFS as per these instructions.

Hope this helps.
