Is it possible to trigger a TFS build from Jenkins. I have found that there is a plugin in Jenkins which can be used to trigger build Link. But not sure if it can actually trigger build in TFS or it actually runs a MSBUILD on the TFS source, and does not invoke a TFS build which uses the build controller architecture for the build.
Please help me with the information , if anyone has worked on this.
The plugin is used to get resource from TFS and trigger a build in Jenkins as Dylan Smith mentioned. If you want to trigger a build in TFS from Jenkins , you can add a "Execute Windows batch command" build step and use TFSBuild command to queue a build in TFS.
TFSBuild start /collection:teamProjectCollectionUrl /builddefinition:definitionSpec [/droplocation:droplocation] /getoption:getoption] [/customgetversion:versionSpec] [/priority:priority] [/requestedfor:userName] [/msbuildarguments:args] [/shelveset:shelvesetName [/checkin]] [/silent] [/queue]
