Well, I’m back from vacation, pleasantly tired and yet relaxed at the same time. I’m busy trying to dig out of e-mail, things are going well, Beta2 has been in your hands for several weeks, and I’ve got lots of great ideas to try out on this site.(That’s the theory, anyway. In reality, I’m writing this...
I'm happy to announce that the PInvoke Interop Assistant tool is now available on CodePlex. This includes the binaries, source code and the dev authored unit tests. It is hosted on the more general CLR Interop Tools page. http://www.codeplex.com/clrinterop I will be actively maintaining this tool in the future and (hopefully...
This question came up on the internal discussion alias. Tom Marsh, development lead on VSTS for Testers, responded saying, "the console output is saved with the unit test results. If you download the results and open them in the IDE, you will see the console output in the results view for the test that created it."tags: tfs, team ...
In the earlier post I highlighted various investments that we are making in Visual Studio 2010 and IIS to make Web Deployment easier. You can read that post below: Deploying a web project with all its correct dependencies is not a trivial task. Some of the assets which need to be considered during deployment are...
One important aspect of Continuous Integration is getting notification that the build is broken. One common way is via a desktop notification from an application like TfsAlert that listens for events (or polls if there isn't a TFS-style event notification mechanism).Ideally, the build or unit test break would be noticed as soon as ...
Before creating a team project, you should carefully plan the scope of the project and consider the future path for the modification, growth, and maintenance of the team project. This topic presents a list of questions you must answer to determine whether you may want to create a new team project or expand an existing project. This list of ...
Hi, my name is Li Shao. I am Software Design Engineer in Test on the C++ team. As has been mentioned in many of the blogs, for example, recent blog by Felix Huang, the blog by Andreea Issac and my earlier blog, one of the major improvements in this release is that the C++ build system is moving from the VCBuild based system to the MSBuild ...
Rido posted a cool way to see your test results from a build without having to copy the information locally and view it in VS. Pretty cool! TestResults Reports in TFS Builds If you use TFSBuilds with VS UnitTests, you know how to inspect the TestResults: you must download the whole directory to your local machine, and sometimes ...
Last summer (July 2010) we delivered in Madrid a nice PEX & MOLES workshop. The speaker was Peli de Halleux, from MICROSOFT RESEARCH. If you are interested in Unit Testing, Mocking, etc., you should take a look at it! It was a great workshop and we recorded it, so now we just published it on Channel9. Here you have the links! :-) 1/3...
One thing that continues to amaze me are the powerful tools available to developers and QA nowadays. Application performance can be improved through profiling and optimization tools operating statically and/or dynamically on the binary (using PGO for example). Testing metrics become more accurate when using instrumentation and code...
