Visual Studio Team System
Test Edition

Updated: November 2007

Visual Studio Team System Test Edition includes a suite of test tools that are integrated closely with Visual Studio; they work not only in their own testing framework, but also within a larger framework of software life cycle tools.

Test Edition lets you create, manage, edit, and run tests, and also obtain and store test results. Several test types, including unit, Web, load, and manual tests, are integrated into Visual Studio. In addition, the measurement of code coverage is included. To learn more about the different available test types, see Selecting a Test Type.

You run tests by using the Visual Studio IDE. Additionally, you can run groups of tests or any single test other than the manual test type from a command line.

Because the testing tools are integrated with the other parts of the Visual Studio Team System, you can publish results to a database, generate trend and historical reports, compare different kinds of data, and see how many and which bugs were found because of testing.

Microsoft Tester Center at MSDN      Anand Raman - MSFT ... Thomas Lee   |   Edit   |  

The Microsoft Tester Center showcases the test discipline as an integral part of the application lifecycle, describes test roles and responsibilities, and promotes the test investments required to deliver high-quality software.

Visit Microsoft Center at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/testing/default.aspx

The aim of the Microsoft Tester Center is to provide a place for software testers to share their experiences and best practices, and to shed some light on how we do software testing at Microsoft. Testers from across Microsoft have contributed content for this site, and the first couple of articles are now available in the MSDN Library:

Visual Studio Team System embraces the entire software development team. Software testers are one of the key benefactors of this expansion in the Visual Studio product line. While Team System provides the tools software testers need to be successful, this site will help provide some of the knowledge testers need to make the best use of those tools and to cultivate the software testing community.
