Mark Struberg commented on SCM-461:
-----------------------------------

short explanation: For the last 2 months we contacted a few developers from 
within Microsoft and also MVPs from well known 3rd party companies. It looks 
like TFS simply does not support any kind of 'initialising'  to a certain 
point. The only way to get a specific state into TFS would be stopping the 
server, doing a SQLServer backup, restart TFS and run a few jobs to recalculate 
internal data. Another way would be to create a VMware running in snapshot mode 
(readonly) and restarting the VM for every TCK. All other options we discussed 
are even more unpracticable.

So it looks pretty unrealistic that we will ever get TCKs running for TFS, 
instead we need to run all the tests manually with little projects. Subhash 
already did a lot of internal testing this way. 

For getting it even better, we'd have to make it usable for a lot of people 
easily. So I'd like  to see it in our maven-scm SVN as early as possible.
