TFS build picking wrong build for deployment

Question

Hi,

I have been using LabDefualtTemplate to achieve build, deploy and test for past one year. In Build settings I have provided the build defination name, and selected an option to pick latest existing build. Till last week, everything was working fine. But now instead of picking latest build it is picking one particular old build everytime. I tried creating new build definition for BDT but it is still picking same build.

Anyone know how to find the cause of this ?

What activity do I need to check in LabDefaultTemplate to verify how a build is choosen?

Thanks.

Found the cause of this. When we say to pick latest build it picks latest FULL PASS build. If latest build is partial succeded and some old build is full pass build, labdefaulttemplate will pick full pass build.
