Sep 06, 2018 started Admin Visual Studio Team (Product Team, Microsoft Visual Studio) responded Oct 12, 2018 We have a new update ready for you now – version 0.4.3 was release just yesterday. If you already have it installed, open the Visual Studio > Extensions > Updates tab to update to the latest release. Do we use a bunch of different tools to handle these task or do we find a way to get TFS to work on a Mac. Considering the name of this article is 'How to use TFS on a Mac' and not 'How to use various other products to replace TFS on a Mac', i'm guessing you can figure which option we chose! VSTeam is a PowerShell module that exposes portions of the REST API for Visual Studio Team Services and Team Foundation Server. It is written in pure PowerShell and can be used on Mac, Linux or Windows to connect to TFS or VSTS. To install VSTeam you can use the Install-Module cmdlet. Installing a VSTS Build agent on Mac OSX February 13, 2017 by Rene van Osnabrugge 1 Comment Today I needed to install the VSTS Build Agent on a Mac Mini in the office so we can build the IPhone App. In Visual Studio for Mac, choose Visual Studio > Extensions from the menu. In the Gallery tab, select Version Control > Team Foundation Version Control for TFS and VSTS and click Install: Follow the prompts to install the extension.

Yesterday I started working with a client who uses TFS with Git. My outlook.com account was added to the repo and Visual Studio 2017 connected fine once I was logged-in with this account.
I then wanted to pull the repo Visual Studio for Mac and discovered it's impossible using the Microsoft account outlook.com credentials - I just got unathorized messages.
I tried it in Git Bash too and had the same results. I think when Visual Studio connects on Windows it must stash a token which it then uses to authenticate itself and never uses the Microsoft account username and password.
Normally when I connect to GitHub or BitBucket using HTTPS, I only use a simple user name and password combiation so figured it must be possible, but not with the Microsoft email address. After a fair amount of googling, I discovered that there is the concept of Alternate authentication credentials
If you login to .visualstudio.com and click Manage security next to the repository:
You get the security menu where you can select Alternate authentication credentials:
Visual Studio For Mac
In here, you can create your Alternate authentication credentials:

Once saved, the .visualstudio.com Git repository can be cloned either from Git or Visual Studio for Mac using these credentials.

Use Microsoft Test Manager (MTM) to help you test the application you built. MTM stores your test plans and results on Team Foundation Server (TFS).
Connect Microsoft Test Manager to your Team Project and Test Plan

If you don’t have MTM, download and install Microsoft Visual Studio Test Professional.
Don’t have a team project? Set up a team project
Connect to TFS and choose your team project.
Create a new test plan, unless there’s already a plan you want to use. Typically, you create a separate test plan for each sprint.
Select a plan.
If you want to connect to a different team project or test plan later, choose Home.
