I had a few projects recently that required me to do a web deployment.

What I have used was the Deployment project that you can create in Visual Studio but you can also use the Team Build abilities to do the Web Deployment.

I have just read a great post explaining how to do it posted by Simon Timms that you can read in the following link:

Have Fun!!!

It was great!!!

My first session was about the “Visual Studio Testing Tools” for better quality and my second session was about BI in the Service of the Tester.

you can see my previus post regarding this event: "My Session in “Next Generation Testing with Microsoft Visual Studio 2010” Tomorrow"

You can download my Power Point Presentation from here.

Many thanks for all the people that made it happen and helped me in my preparations!!!

Have Fun!!!

It is here, the release version of the Team Explorer Everywhere Service Pack 1.

The Development team have invested on fixing bugs and added more functionality to the Team Explorer Everywhere SP1 according to the feedback they have received from the Beta version.

I have talked about the new functionality on my post: “Team Explorer Everywhere 2010 SP1 Beta is available”

The new functionality is taken from Brian Harry’s post: “Team Explorer Everywhere 2010 SP1 is Available”

Auto-connect on Start-up

If a Team Explorer view is displayed in your current perspective in Eclipse, then this will connect automatically to your last TFS connection.  You can disable this if you prefer using the Eclipse preference under Team, Team Foundation Server

Fast Workspace Switching

Previously in the Eclipse plug-in there was a binding of one TFS workspace per Eclipse workspace.  In SP1 you can now quickly switch workspaces from the workspace management drop-down in the Pending Changes view.  You can also manage workspaces and working folder mappings from here.

Source Control Explorer Improvements

There are usability improvements around mapping, unmapping and cloaking of folders in TFS using Source Control Explorer.  There is a link to the path label that will open the local folder in your file explorer (i.e. Explorer on Windows or Finder on Mac etc).

There are many other things that are not as visible including improving the Kerberos support on non-Windows platforms.

Have Fun!!!

Tomorrow is a big day for me!

I am about to give a session about testing with the Microsoft Testing Tools that were released with the Visual Studio 2010 and TFS 2010.

Unfortunately the registration was closed a few days ago due to lake of sits.

I apologize I know that many people couldn’t get a sit on time, some have personally called me but there is nothing I can do about it, we have saved the biggest room Microsoft has to offer.

I will try to save another date for this event, I promise to publish the new date if there will be one.

I hope that all of you that have registered for this day will enjoy my session.

I have many thanks to say but I will save it for the session summary post.

Have Fun!!!
