Build Templates

To facilitate reusing build processes across build definitions Team Build 2010 introduces the concept of build templates. Once a build process has been defined you can click the Save Workflow As Template toolbar button as shown in Figure C-2 to save it to a build template file (*.btp). This template can then be distributed or stored in version control and then used to create new build definitions.
