New features in Beta2 (compared to Beta1)

  • Artikel

We recently announced Beta2 of VS2010. If you have installed the Beta1 release and played with it or even if you didn’t and are experiencing the product for the first time, you are perhaps wondering what is new in Beta2. The table below is an enumeration of the new features in Beta2. As you can see from the list below the team has been very busy reacting to your feedback and adding a lot of features to round off the product to address your needs. In a future post I will expand on each of the features and explain how to get to them so you can experience these for yourself. Do let me know which of these features you would like me to blog about first so I can prioritize them higher.

    Is there a specific reason why test steps are in Edit mode only in Web Access. Does that mean that every resource in the team should have MS Test Manager installed to work on their Test Cases?
