If you are building an extension using the TFS object model that is going to target multiple versions of TFS, you would most likely want to programmatically figure out the version of the TFS Server you are currently pointing at. Some of the API services introduced in the later version of TFS aren't available in earlier versions of TFS. Unfortunately, the API does not expose a property or function that will give you the exact version of TFS. In this recipe, you'll learn how to determine the TFS version programmatically.

Overview of this book
Team Foundation Server (TFS) allows you to manage code repositories, build processes, test infrastructure, and deploy labs. TFS supports your team, enabling you to connect, collaborate, and deliver on time. Microsoft's approach to Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) provides a flexible and agile environment that adapts to the needs of your team, removes barriers between roles, and streamlines processes.
The book introduces you to creating and setting up team projects for scrum teams. You'll explore various source control repositories, branching, and merging activities, along with a demonstration of how to embed quality into every code check-in. Then, you'll discover agile project planning and management tools. Later, emphasis is given to the testing and release management features of TFS which facilitate the automation of the release pipeline in order to create potentially shippable increments.
By the end of the book, you'll have learned to extend and customize TFS plugins to incorporate them into other platforms and enable teams to manage the software lifecycle effectively.
