Productivity: Debugging

We are very excited to announce the official release of the R1 2011 version of our agile project management tool TeamPulse. This release expands the tool’s feature set with the addition of a Bug Tracking module, which allows users to record, triage, assign and evaluate bugs in an easy and intuitive way. We also wanted R1 2011 to be about increasing individual and team productivity. That’s why we introduced features like the “My Perspective” view, and the interactive TaskBoard, which give users more control over their daily work. Read through for the full list of new ...

If you have contacted Telerik support before, chances are that you have been asked to send us a sample project. The time invested in isolating a problem before opening a ticket is well paid off. Such tickets require less time for investigation and are usually closed with only one or two replies. In almost all cases the problem can be easily isolated by following a few simple guidelines. Here they are.

Our migration to Team Foundation Server started a couple of months ago with the Source Control adoption. Another step that we performed was to transfer our Countersoft's Gemini bug-tracker projects to TFS Issue Tracking System.

I already knew that the HttpSessionState instance was being stored in the current HttpContext's Items collection (thanks to Mr. Lutz Roeder, of course), and my initial plan was to inherit from HttpSessionState and intercept the calls made to methods like Add, Remove, etc.  Alas, HttpSessionState is marked as...

Do you use Fiddler to inspect the HTTP traffic? You may be faced with the following problem: since we started using the beta of the IE7 browser we started experiencing problems when monitoring the requests sent to http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1 - the requests were not reported by the Fiddler tool. It took us some time to understand what was the exact reason for this until we found the workaround for this issue here: http://www.fiddlertool.com/Fiddler/help/hookup.asp --- quote --- Why don't I see IE7 or System.NET traffic sent to http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1? IE7 and the .NET Framework are hardcoded not to send requests for Localhost through any proxies,...
