The inbuilt prescriptive guidance provides pre-packaged counters, pre-set thresholds, pre-built views of load statistics and their effect on the servers under test and built-in knowledge of server behavior.
Visual Studio 2008 Team Suite Overview
Microsoft® Visual Studio® Team Suite combines the functionality from all four Visual Studio Team System role-based editions (Team Editions for Architects, Developers, Database Professionals, and Testers) to offer a fully comprehensive development environment for multi-disciplined team members.
Architect and Design Distributed Systems
Sound architectural decisions are the key to project success. Visual Studio Team Suite provides powerful new visual designers for service-oriented solution modeling. These new visual designers increase productivity and help architects and operations managers make sound architectural decisions by validating their solutions against the operational environment early in the application life cycle.
* Visually design Web services-based distributed applications
* Validate distributed systems against operational requirements
* Increase probability of successful application deployment
* Simplify management and administration
Optimize Performance and Diagnose Issues
The performance tools in Visual Studio Team Suite trace their technological roots back almost a decade to the labs of Microsoft Research. At that time, Microsoft Research was responsible for a set of performance tools that were created to help optimize products such as Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and Microsoft SQL Server 2005. These efforts produced the profiling and performance technologies that are now offered as part of Visual Studio Team System.
* Improve code quality and security with static code analysis
* Specify coding best practices with check-in policies
* Test code early and often with integrated unit testing
* Measure the effectiveness of unit tests with code coverage
* Measure code performance with profiling and performance session reports
* Manage and launch performance sessions with Performance Explorer
Ensure Software Quality
Visual Studio Team Suite provides a complete set of quality tools to help team members write better code, reduce security-related issues and avoid bugs and quality issues later in the development life cycle.
* Manage the test life cycle
* Comprehensive Web testing
* Prescriptive performance testing
Take Control of Database Change
By reducing the risks involved in making database schema changes you can better control the integrity of your database throughout the development process. Visual Studio Team Suite provides the specific capabilities to help you reduce those risks, streamline changes, and take control of your database.
* Rename refactoring support for database objects
* Schema Compare to keep two schema versions synchronized
* Data Compare to keep the data in two databases synchronized
* Offline database projects for change isolation
* Extensible unit test functionality
* Data generator to define sets of repeatable test data
* New designer to create unit tests in T-SQL or managed code
Improve Collaboration and Communication
All Visual Studio Team Editions are deeply integrated with Team Foundation Server to give team members complete visibility into all development artifacts and activities on a project, reducing issues related to poor communication and improving team productivity and effectiveness.
* Get a unified view across your project with Team Explorer
* Manage change to project artifacts with Team Foundation Version Control
* Communicate and manage work across the team with Team Foundation Work Item Tracking
* Collaborate using the Team Portal
* Define your development process using Team Foundation Process Templates
* Integrate your team's work together regularly using Team Foundation Build
* Make real-time decisions based on performance and quality metrics with reporting and business intelligence
* Support distributed and outsourced development teams
Rapid Application Development
To help developers rapidly create modern software, Visual Studio 2008 delivers improved language and data features, such as Language Integrated Query (LINQ), that make it easier for individual programmers to build solutions that analyze and act on information.
Visual Studio 2008 also provides developers with the ability to target multiple versions of the .NET Framework from within the same development environment. Developers will be able to build applications that target the .NET Framework 2.0, 3.0 or 3.5, meaning that they can support a wide variety of projects in the same environment.
Break Through User Experience
Visual Studio 2008 offers developers new tools that speed creation of connected applications on the latest platforms including the Web, Windows Vista, Office 2007, SQL Server 2008, and Windows Server 2008. For the Web, ASP.NET AJAX and other new technologies will enable developers to quickly create a new generation of more efficient, interactive, and personalized Web experiences.
Effective Team Collaboration
Visual Studio 2008 delivers expanded and improved offerings that help improve collaboration in development teams, including tools that help integrate database professionals and graphic designers into the development process.
Use the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5
The .NET Framework enables the rapid construction of connected applications that provide outstanding end-user experiences by providing the building blocks (pre-fabricated software) for solving common programming tasks. Connected applications built on the .NET Framework model business processes effectively and facilitate the integration of systems in heterogeneous environments.
Together Visual Studio and the .NET Framework reduce the need for common plumbing code, reducing development time and enabling developers to concentrate on solving business problems.
The .NET Framework 3.5 builds incrementally on the .NET Framework 3.0. Enhancements have been made to feature areas including the base class library, Windows Workflow Foundation, Windows Communication Foundation, Windows Presentation Foundation, and Windows CardSpace.
