Lab Management: Configuring Workgroup Lab Machines to a TFS on a Domain

I’ve installed Windows 8 on my laptop, enabled HyperV and upgraded my TFS from 2010 to 2012. Since Lab Management 2012 introduced Standard Environments, I can use my HyperV machines in lab environments right out of Windows 8. However, while I was configuring my lab, I ran into a problem. My laptop is on my work domain, and my lab machines (running on HyperV) are not joined to the domain – they’re in a workgroup.

Upgrading MSF Agile 5.0 to MSF Agile 6.0: Why does my velocity chart not work?

So you’ve just upgraded your TFS 2010 server to TFS 2012. And you’ve been using the MSF Agile 5.0 process template.

I am working on some code for the TFS Tester Power Tool with my colleague Anna Russo (who just got her first MVP award!) and we’re using TFS Preview for source control and work item tracking. From the start I wanted to get some unit tests and builds up and running. The challenge for the unit testing side was that the tool works against a Team Foundation Server, so testing required some sort of mocking or faking.
