Dev10 Beta 1 Available!

Beta 1 was released to the web today for MSDN subscribers. If you are a MSDN subscriber, you can download the Beta today from here.

We have been very busy on this release of late (one reason why my blog posts have slowed down lately :))

My team and I will be blogging about all the great new features in dev10 beta 1 over the coming weeks.

As in the past, I will compose a list of links to any posts on the new features and update this blog post with the links as we get them.

New Web Test Features in Dev10:

• These features are about making it easier to get web test playback working:
  • Extensible recorder plugins for modifying recorded web tests (including adding custom dynamic parameter correlation)
  • Find in playback
  • View recording log in playback
  • Jump to request from playback
  • Add extraction rule from playback
  • WebTestResult in a separate file for better scalability
  • New API for web test result
  • New extensibility API in playback enables UI extensions to playback
• File Upload record/playback just works
  • Uploaded file added to project and deployed
  • Option for generating a unique file name on each iteration
• Looping and branching in web test
• New dialog for editing think times, goals, reporting string across all requests
• New validation and extraction rules for inner text and select tags
• Test level validation rule for pages meeting response time goal

New features in Load Test in Dev10:

• Logging and data collection improvements
  • Log entire test result on test failure or log entire result every n requests
  • Remote profiler integration
  • Event Log Data Collection
  • Extensible data collectors to support more platforms
• Analysis Improvements
  • Load test virtual user activity visualization, also here.
• Reporting
  • Run to run perf reports in Microsoft Excel

  • New Sequential Test Mix
  • Delay start on scenario
  • Iteration count on scenario
  • Select which agent(s) to run the scenario on
  • Disable during warmup
• Multiple load test plugins
• 64 bit test execution

In addition to continuing our testing and bug fixing efforts, right now we’re working on an additional set of features for beta 2. I’ll have to sit on those until beta2. :)
