Visual Studio 2010: What’s in it for the testers?
Visual studio 2010 provides following key enhancements to the testers
- Create test plans, test suites, test configurations, and test cases with individual test steps
- Gather diagnostic information when running a test, and automatically add it to a bug
- Record manual test steps and replay them during a future test run
- Create automated UI tests
- Create virtual environments that define the set of roles required to run a specific application
