Course Description
Packt's Video Learning Path is a series of individual video products put together in a logical and stepwise manner such that each video builds on the skills learned in the video before it.
The highlights of this Learning Path are:
Focus on coding with the new, improved, and powerful tools of VS 2017
Test for performance, load, and continuous delivery, all at one place
Master every tool to improve the effectiveness of manual testing
Let's take a quick look at your learning journey. This Learning Path begins with an introduction to the new features of Visual Studio 2017 and C# 7.0. You will then understand how to work with source control repositories. You will also learn to plan and create a test suite.
Next, you will learn how to perform unit tests. Once you are comfortable testing, you will learn how to automate your tests as well. You will learn how to test your application for performance, running, distributing, and analyzing load tests. You will also learn the use of Microsoft Test Manager to streamline your tests and then go on to test web performance and write code to customize it where needed.
Moving ahead, this Learning Path teaches you how to perform continuous testing that fits in line with DevOps practices for cloud environments. You will be introduced to the tools that can improve the effectiveness of manual testing. You will then work with Microsoft Test Manager to organize test processes more effectively; (IntelliTrace for easier reproduction of issues encountered; and UI tests, to automate repetitive regression testing). Next, you will learn to configure Visual Studio Team Services to automatically build code and run unit tests whenever a change is committed to source control. Finally, you will focus on tools for improving application performance, that is, profiling and load testing.
After the completion of this Learning Path, you will master the tools and techniques of Visual Studio 2017 to test and debug your applications efficiently.
