Where is the Release Management Build Template? (ReleaseDefaultTemplate.11.1.xaml)

If you’re setting up the Release Management Server to work with TFS 2013, you might be wondering where the Release Management Build Process Template (ReleaseDefaultTemplate.11.1.xaml) resides.  It is not installed in TFS by default so it won’t appear as an available build process template until you add it, but you will find it on the machine where the Release Management Server is installed, in the following location:

C:\Program Files (x86)\ Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\ReleaseManagement\bin

Just check it in to your team project, and then you can add the build process file when editing (or adding) a Build Definition.

From then on it will be available to that Team Project.

Took me a few minutes to track this info down.

Also, be sure to check out the Release Management for Visual Studio 2013 User Guide.

    Hi, Thanks for this post. I've found the xml template but I'm not able to open the workflow in design mode. microsoft.teamfoundation.testimpact.buildintegration and TfsBuild namespaces are missing. Where I could find the dll? Many thanks, Ramon Torras http://www.ramontorras.net/

    Hello again, I found the answer myself. I'm using VS2013 so you need to modify the version of the referenced dll's to the version 12 instead 11 editing the code view of the xml file. Many thanks, Ramon

    This is something to look at if you get the error:) TF900558: This build process template cannot be run on build server Default Controller - <server name>. Upgrade this build server to a newer version. What I'm attempting to do, is get a build than can run some CodedUItests captured in VisualStudio2013, via MTM by 'association', for which the current build of TFS is older than that of my (virtual machine) test environment.
