In this session of our conversation, Bridging The Gap Between Developers and Testers Using Visual Studio 2010, Etienne and Vincent deploy the web service to the lab environment and then run tests against it to ensure that everything is working. During the Q&A session, Etienne answers a very important question: “We have test plan, test suite, work items, and builds. How do they all tie together?” He explains:

  • The plan is the overarching container that holds test suites that are composed of test cases.
  • Each suite is associated with a requirement – all test cases within the test suite are used to test the one requirement to which the suite is assigned.
  • The build is assigned to the plan – the build is created in order to test everything in the test plan. With each new build, all of the test suites would be rerun to ensure that they all still work.

With that, Etienne and Vincent, back to you.
