    Integrating your Windows Phone unit tests with MSBuild #6: Conclusion

    It’s been a while since I started this blog post series which describes our approach of integrating and automating the unit test execution with MSBuild thus effectively organizing a Continuous Integration build which aggregates check-ins, builds the projects and runs all unit tests after that. Since there is no out-of-the-box solution to automate Windows Phone unit tests we came up with some not so standard ideas and managed to build our own mechanism. I have described these ideas in a series of blogs summarized below: 1. Introduction and Overview – description of the solution, as well as some explanations of the reasoning behind this approach 2. The...

    RadDatePicker & RadTimePicker for WP7 get null-value support

    You’ve talked and we’ve listened: as of Beta 2 release of RadControls for Windows Phone 7 the RadTimePicker and RadDatePicker controls support null-value.

    RadDataBoundListBox: Blending UI Virtualization & Smooth Scrolling together

    While developing our QSF application (available on the WP7 Marketplace under the name Telerik RadControls) one of our main goals was to combine our Metro design inspiration and the WP7 OS performance thus creating the ultimate Windows Phone user experience. I must admit that we faced some challenges way back then which greatly expanded our WP7 knowledge, and helped us introduce further performance and memory footprint optimizations in our latest Beta 1 release of our suite. One of the heavily utilized controls in this application is the ListBox control available in the standard Windows Phone toolbox. While this control brings great...
