Unit Testing with Code Coverage

Exploratory Testing

• Exploratory testing is the testing of an application without a set of tests defined in advance. During an exploratory test session, you are not restricted to a script or a set of predetermined steps. Some improvements have been made to the exploratory testing in Microsoft Test Manager.

Coded UI Testing

• Coded UI tests provide a way to create fully automated tests to validate the functionality and behavior of your application’s user interface. You can create coded UI tests directly from existing action recordings. Action recordings contain the steps taken during manual testing of an application.

Web Performance Testing

• Any new Web performance and load testing efforts you create in Visual Studio are now created in a Web performance and load test project type instead of a test project. A Web performance test consists of a series of HTTP requests. Web performance tests work at the protocol layer by issuing HTTP requests.

Load Testing

• Load tests consist of a series of Web performance tests or unit tests which operate under multiple simulated users over a period of time. Load tests can also include automated coded UI tests. Coded UI tests should be included only under specific circumstances. All the scenarios that use coded UI tests in load tests involve using the coded UI tests as performance tests.

Lab Management

• Testing a complex multi-tiered application and creating different configurations in a user-flow can be challenging. Lab Management provides teams a powerful and flexible development and test lab environment to enable scalable build-deploy-test workflow and continuous integration through environment templates.
