Code metrics in TFS 2015 Build

Question

Do we have any option to display code metrics details in TFS 2015 on-prem build? I couldn't find any option to include the values as part of build. Ideally I would like to display the values below code coverage section (as show in pic).

Something similar to this:

Answer 1

In Team Foundation Server 2015 Update 2 or later, your goal can be achieved. You can write your own TFS extensions to enable integration at the UI layer – surfacing the relevant information in the right places. Check Overview of extensions for TFS/VSTS: https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/docs/integrate/extensions/overview
