Answer / venkat
this is version control tool. this is just like repositary
where we maintain all documents like testplan,testcase,
requirements.this is mainly used in configuration
management.
checkout is the process of transfering the document from
vss database to local folder.in vss database we cant modify
the document directly.
checkin is the reverse process of checkout. this is moving
the document from local folder to vss database.

Answer / mtest
VSS is short term used for calling Visual SourceSafe. It is
a kind of central repository maintained to effective
functioning of the project.
Microsoft version 6.0c (VSS) is the most simple and dynamic
source code management tool. Developers can efficiently
maintain and control the version using vss. Testers can also
fetch the build and quality can be tested for the same.
Checkin and Checkout are the two major functions, which
helps in tracking the dates and time of the package created
and given for testing. Also VSS provides Search
functionality to its users for seraching the files.
In a project, VSS controller is called as the configuration
manager. Configuration Management gives the permission for
folders, files etc for accessing the read and write mode,
and rights to add, delete and read files.
