Example Workflow

Enhance Team Collaboration

− Integrated Tools Ensure Team Consistency− Drive consistent results as all team

members work with an integrated set of tools

− The Collaboration Hub− Team Foundation Server provides

the single collaboration source for all assets associated with a project

− Complete Transparency− All members of the team have visibility

into how the project is progressing

Proactive Project Management

− Understand Project Health− Detailed reports let you understand what

is “Really” going on with the project

− Optimized for Iterative Development− Ensure productivity and react to potential

risks before they happen

− Manage Projects Your Way− Use Microsoft Project or Excel based agile planning

documents to keep control of your projects

Project Management

DEMO

Prototype Ideas to bring Projects to Life− The Electronic Beer Mat

− SketchFlow allows you to deliver functioning prototypes with that “Back of a Beer Mat” feel

− Design UI Flow− Design your UI Flow using the

Application Flow functionality

− SketchFlow Player− Easily share and gain input to your

prototypes from all interested parties

Architecture as a Living Asset

− UML 2.1 Support− Design & Communicate Solution

Architecture with UML Diagrams.

− Architecture Explorer− Discover and understand how a system

works and visualize existing code assets and how they connect.

− Architectural Validation− Ensure Code Matches the Intended Design

Architecture Tools

DEMO

Quality – Unit Testing

− Test driven Development− Focus on Unit Testing First and Generate

Code on Demand

− Code Coverage− View Statistics Details at the Method Level− Code Colouring for Quick View of Coverage

− Test Impact Analysis− Run the Right Tests and only the Right Tests

Quality – Code Analysis

− Code Metrics− Find complex and difficult to test code

− Code Profiling− Analyse Code for Performance Issues,

Bottlenecks & Memory Allocation

− Static Code Analysis− Analyse Code to Show Common Issues− Apply Custom or Pre-Defined Rulesets

Quality – Team Foundation Server

− Version Control Check In Policies− Ensure Coding or Architectural Standard

− Version Control Branch Visualisation− Track Code Changes Associated with Bugs or

Requirements− Understand where Updates have been

Deployed

− Automated Builds− Continuous Integration− Gated Check-In

Database Quality

− Manage Database Change through Version Control− Manage your database versions alongside your

code − Work in an offline environment to avoid potential

conflicts

− Powerful Comparison and deployment Tools− Compare Schemas build deployment

packages

− Test Data Generation and DB Unit Testing− Generate test data from an existing data

source

Tools for the Developer

DEMO

Test Management

− Test and Lab Manager− Test Case Management− Plan, Manage and Execute Tests from one Place

− Virtual Test Environments− Reduce the overhead of maintaining

physical test environments− Share Virtual environments between

team members

− IntelliTrace™− Make “No-Repro” History with Actionable Bugs

Automated Testing

− Coded UI Tests− Automated regression tests let you find

bugs earlier

− Web and Load Testing− Know your code is ready for the big time− Measure performance under real time load conditions

and ensure that your applications are ready for release
