There are two good workarounds when you want to start playing/ learning to develop Windows 8 Store Apps, but you aren’t able to due to a machine limitations or company policies. (more)

Blog | Hands-on Visual Studio 2012 Workshops - What to do with your free Azure MSDN subscription.

published 204 days, 6 hours, 16 minutes ago posted by

I run workshops. Instead of boring lectures, I give the attendees the opportunity to get real hands-on experience and feel the scenario instead of listing only. Specially the Visual Studio 2012 ALM scenario’s are really nice, the attendees work together on a scenario like: code review, feedback, agile planning and testing. I run these workshops with Azure Virtual Machines, every attendee has it’s own environment on Azure prepared and configured by me for that specific workshop. After I created an image (... (more)

MTM Coded UI Test automation investment, when to use what.

posted by

ClemensReijnen 311 days, 10 hours, 5 minutes ago

All validation (test) activities cost money. So, every activity to test a system should be executed as efficient as possible (see also the ‘testing in sprint’ series on this blog). Adding automation to the execution of these validation saves execution time, which saves money. But, specifying, creating and maintaining these automation cost money. So, the hard question is where is the balance, where the break-even point of test automation. (more)

Getting Testing Done in the Sprint - The Customer Test Team

published 309 days, 2 hours, 36 minutes ago posted by

ClemensReijnen 318 days, 17 hours, 43 minutes ago

I don’t mean the acceptance test team, although many think and organize it as if it is the same. On a test conference a few weeks ago I heard the story of moving testing out of the sprint, or adding a specific test sprint after a development sprint. Both ‘worksrrounds’ I dislike, you lose the flexibility and feedback loop. It was something like the ‘IndependentParallelTesting’ story, also not my favorite solution. (more)

A challenge in getting testing done in a sprint is the fact that the software (PBI) isn’t ready to be tested till implementation/ coding is done. How To. Work on completing each item in the sprint backlog and finish one item after another, see task boards below. (more)

Getting Testing Done in the Sprint – No Double, Triple Testing

published 478 days, 51 minutes ago posted by

ClemensReijnen 481 days, 8 hours, 10 minutes ago

One way of getting testing done in a sprint is making it [testing] as efficient as possible, meanwhile this also saves money. One way of getting more efficient is not doing things double or triple. An interesting thing with testing, we do test double or triple. We test it during unit, during unit integration, during functional and during acceptance testing, this can be done better, we could save a lot of time. I’ve seen teams which also automated all these types of tests, testing the same thing... not re... (more)

Teams and TFS Groups in TFS11, the backlog, board and security settings

published 482 days, 18 hours, 53 minutes ago posted by

ClemensReijnen 486 days, 21 hours, 5 minutes ago

Beside using the new team concept in TFS11, you also just can do it the ‘old’ way. Put all your team members in the different TFS Groups (readers, contributors, … ) and give them access to the team project. Just as you did the past decade. But, you have to understand what happens when you do it. You also can mix things, create teams and only add TFS groups to it, or give people specific rights within a team… actually you can make it a complete chaos. In this post some usages scenarios.

Teams in Visual Studio 11 CTP, The Bug Backlog.

posted by

ClemensReijnen 590 days, 23 hours, 4 minutes ago

Default are bugs visually in the product backlog. When a tester files a bugs from test manager (or any other client tool), it will be shown in the teams product backlog. Now, not everybody is happy with the solution that every bug is visible in the backlog. many small bugs will blur the visual management capability of the backlog and task board, and maybe very big ones are to big to solve in the same sprint or need some more investigation and product owner collaboration.

Sometimes a project is bigger than one team can handle (with the recommended team size, see the scrum guide). A solution for this big project problem is the creation of multiple teams and organize scrum of scrums meetings. With the scrum of scrums meetings we hope we will solve the possible integration and reuse problems. (more)

Microsoft Test Manager - Test Runner–Playback error with C:\fakepath

ClemensReijnen 731 days, 22 hours, 2 minutes ago

When executing a test case with Microsoft Test Runner with a step where you have to select a file in a web application, you get “C:\fakepath” for the location of the file you selected. For example in step 4 you need to select an image from the local disk. When you replay this action you get the c:\Fakepath folder. For sure this ruins the fat forward for you test case. (more)

With VS2010 ALM you can very easily take a manual test case and turn it in an automated test case. But this isn’t without investment. There are still some additional things to do which take time and money before we get the benefit of automated execution of a test case. (more)

To add an assertion for the test you can use the crosshair, which selects the UI control and lets you select the properties you want to test. The UI Test Builder visualizes your selection by a blue highlight around the selected UI control. in the screenshot below this highlighting goes wrong, and it goes wrong for every control… pretty annoying.
