Team System User Group Meeting – 03.24.2009
via OmahaMTG.com mailing list:
Greetings!
It’s that time again - time for the next meeting of the Omaha Team System User Group. This meeting will be held on Tuesday, March 24th, at 6:00pm (food will be provided 15 to 20 minutes prior to the start of the meeting).
Meeting Details
Presentation: Acceptance/Service Level Testing with Remote Test Runner – Using an automated acceptance testing framework allows you to separate the task of creating test data from the test framework. Your business owners can concentrate on creating the test data that gives them the assurance the product being tested meets their needs leaving developers to create the associated unit tests.
This presentation will be covering a new automated testing tool for use with Visual Studio – Remote Test Runner (RTR). RTR builds upon the data-driven testing features currently built into Visual Studio Professional and higher. RTR provides a nice, intuitive interface for running data-driven tests, even if you don’t have Visual Studio installed. The test results can be reviewed in a summary or detailed view. The detailed view is similar to the output provided by FitNesse, if you’re familiar with that product. If you’re making use of continuous integration, you can integrate the acceptance tests into your automated builds ensuring all tests are executed with each build. If you have code coverage turned on, then coverage of your acceptance tests will be tracked as well.
Remote Test Runner will be released as an open source project on Microsoft’s CodePlex site the night of the presentation.
