Summary

Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition for Testers provides extensive testing tools for Quality Assurance testers that require no understanding of code. This suite of tools allows developers and testers to use a single environment for all their automated and manual testing. This level of integration ensures that all defects are recorded and available to team members through Visual Studio and the project portal Web site. This integration and visibility ensures that you can work together with developers and managers to drive quality into your applications.

You can use manual tests to address scenarios that require manual execution of test scripts. Generic tests allow you to execute any application with a command-line interface as a test. This is often the preferred way to reuse any existing test assets that cannot or will not be converted to new tests. Web tests enable the automated testing of Web interfaces, and they can be incorporated into load tests to ensure that a Web site meets its performance-related operational requirements.
