Automatically checking out TFS changes from one machine to another

Question

I'm writing Protractor/Jasmine E2E tests on a local machine in Visual Studio 2015 which has my project stored through TFS and then I am running those tests each night on another machine. I may be misunderstanding the concept here and/or missing the point of the appropriate tool for this situation.

But, is there a way such that when I check in changes on my local machine that those changes are automatically checked out (get latest) on the secondary machine without having to manually get latest on the files?

Answer 1

If you deploy a build agent on the second machine, when you queue build, build agent will get latest version of your project into the source directory.

Or as @jessehouwing mentioned in comment, you can use TF.exe command line in a script on your second machine to get latest version of your project:

tf get /version:T
