Demo Summary
Regular build compiles solution and runs basic unit tests [Lab build reverts to clean and isolated test environement] Lab build uses output (.dacpac file) to create new SQL
database Lab build uses output (MSDeploy package) to deploy website [Lab build creates a post-deployment snapshot] Lab build runs automated Coded UI Tests for multiple
browsers
Takeaways
• Investigate in creating good templates or VMs in the Library• Find right balance between simulating a full “Production
environment” and a lightweight deployment environment• Finetune “Test Settings” for automated Coded UI Tests• Focus on critical path testing• Build – Measure – Learn
