Release Management 2015 (server and client version)

| TFS 2015 | Previous version

Release Management features have been integrated into Azure Pipelines and Team Foundation Server (TFS). For more information, see Build and Release in Azure Pipelines.

The newer web-based version is the recommended alternative to the server and client version described in this topic. If you do not already have Release Management installed, we encourage you to use the web-based version in TFS 2015 Update 2 and above or Azure Pipelines instead of the version described here. If you are already using an earlier server and client version, you should be aware that no new features will be added to these versions.

Improve the process of managing the release of your app. Deploy your app to a specific environment for each separate stage. Manage the tasks in the process with approvals for each task.
