Integrating your Windows Phone unit tests with MSBuild #2: Technical Overview
Last week I started a blog post series that introduces our approach of automating the Windows Phone unit test execution on our build machines simply sharing the idea behind the automation infrastructure. I have also prepared a diagram that follows the automation process and have structured what I plan to share with you in the following weeks. Now, with the second post of the series I am going to make a more detailed technical overview of our infrastructure and give some reasons for choosing the discussed approach. The Dedicated Build Task and communication with the Windows Phone 7 emulator As already mentioned,... -

Going mobile – the UX perspective. Part 1 – be Metro
We are proud that our controls are not only excellent development tools but they also excel in appearance, styling, great usability and overall user experience. This is a result of the united efforts of the whole team of our developers and us - the UX and UI designers here in Telerik.

Not only the fact that the UX has nothing to do with what’s currently on the shelves, but also the whole platform with its potential and developer accessibility make WP7 very thrilling. I really think that ‘Silverlight’ and ‘mobile’ are two words that should have been stick together anytime soon and with WP7 Microsoft made what should bring them back on the scene – they simply brought Silverlight into mobile.

Integrating your Windows Phone unit tests with MSBuild #1: Introduction
When we started preparing our development infrastructure for the RadControls for Windows Phone 7 suite one of the interesting challenges that we faced was the automation of the unit tests execution. Of course, each developer could run the tests on their local machine manually, but this approach is rather cumbersome, especially when the amount of unit tests grows as the project evolves. Therefore we decided to take some time and research the possibilities for running our unit tests on the Windows Phone emulator automatically by integrating them with our MSBuild projects. The idea we came up with is quite simple in...
