If you are using the the old Xaml build system (TFS 2013 and earlier version), you can follow the steps mentioned in below link to build and deploy the project: Automated Web Deployment and Team Build Using TFS 2013

If you are using vNext build (TFS 2015 and later version), you can use the CI/CD. Please see Continuous integration, test, and deployment tutorial and CI/CD Hello world for details.

You do not need websphere in order to automate builds, builds are created by a build server and placed in an output ( drop folder location ).

Deployment can be handed by creating post build scripts, there are a number of solutions for handling larger deployments but start with the basic build deployment workflow and scale from there.

See the following QuickStart to get an idea of build/deployment process.
