    Running WebUI Test Studio tests with MSTest and MSBuild

    Introduction Let’s start with a few words about MSTest and MSBuild. MSTest is a software unit testing framework developed by Microsoft. With MSTest you can manage and run unit tests from within the Visual Studio IDE, as well as externally, from the command line. MSBuild is a Microsoft build platform typically used in conjunction with Visual Studio. MSBuild version 2.0 is part of .NET Framework 2.0 and works together with Visual Studio 2005. Version 3.5 of MSBuild, which is bundled together with .NET 3.5 (and Visual Studio 2008), allows .NET projects to be built for either 2.0, 3.0 or ...

If you haven’t tried this new addition to the framework, I highly suggest you give it a spin. It’s very cool and allows you to quickly and easily set up RESTful WCF services with which your application can interact with the database. If you’re interested in learning more, MSDN has several great resources to help you get started. One of the cool things about Telerik is that the developers are always mindful of building products that can be easily integrated with existing and future...

    A Recipe For Perfect Software

    Although developers have been creating software for decades now it’s still fashionable, isn’t it?

    WebUI Test Studio Officially Released!

    The official release of Telerik WebUI Test Studio is finally out! The Q1 2009 bits were uploaded last Thursday, March 12.

First of all, the RadControls translators are updated to reflect the latest changes in the RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX suite. Due to the major improvements in the skins most of the translators needed modification. In other words, make sure you run the Q1 ...
