Chapter 1. Creating a Dashboard and a Welcome Page

This chapter aims to guide you through creating dashboards for your team from information that exists in Team Foundation Server (TFS). We'll also take a lap around welcome pages and how they work. We will cover pinning of the following data to dashboards and how to move pinned data around on the dashboard:

Work item status: Here, we'll cover the pinning of work item query counts and charts
Recent source code changes: Here, we'll cover pinning a count of recent code changes
The build status: Here, we'll cover pinning charts showing the build time and if they pass or fail
Testing charts: Here, we'll cover pinning test related information like test status

We'll assume that you have access to TFS 2015 and have all the permissions required to create and modify various kinds of data in the team project that you are using. We'll also assume that you currently have some data that you are able to use for the samples.
