For anyone in the greater Brisbane area, I will be presenting the following session at the QLD VSTS Users Group next month in case you’re interested in coming along.

Eliminating No-repro Bugs

A look at the new Microsoft Visual Studio® Team Test 2010 product.

The next meeting of the QVSTSUG will see a return to our traditional “first Friday morning of the month” timeslot after a small trial of evening meetings. While this will not suit everyone, feedback we have received has been strongly in favour of our traditional meeting time.

Date:	Friday, 5th June
Time:	7:30am Brekkie 8:00am Presentation
RSVP:	http://qvstsugjun09.eventbrite.com
Venue:	Microsoft Office, Level 9 Waterfront place, 1 Eagle Street Brisbane  QLD  4001

Session Abstract:

This month’s QVSTSUG meeting looks at the recently released Microsoft Visual Studio® Team Test 2010 Beta 1 product and how it can drastically reduce the “find and fix” time for bugs that are raised by your testers. Today, significant time is often wasted trying to reproduce bugs with limited success and labelling bugs as “No-repro” can be frustrating for both testers and developers.

Microsoft’s new Test and Lab Manager Application allows testers to create, manage and execute tests quickly and easily in a dedicated user interface.  Using Test Cases, Test Suites and Test Plans, testers will find the new features allow them to better participate as a full team member in Visual Studio Team System.

The session will touch on the following features of the Visual Studio Team Test 2010 product.

• Microsoft Test Runner
• Microsoft Test and Lab Manager application
• Bug Reporting and Data Collectors
• Unit Testing
• Coded UI Test
• Web Test
• Load Test
