You can view the results of a running or a completed build.

  2. On the Builds page, if you see the build you want to view under My Builds, double-click the build or open its context menu and choose Open.

    If the build you want to view is not displayed on the Builds page:

    1. Under Favorite Build Definitions or All Build Definitions, open the context menu for a build definition, and then choose View Builds.

      When Build Explorer appears, choose the Completed tab to view the completed builds, or the Queued tab to view the in-progress builds.
