Summary
This book will show software developers how to use Team System to streamline software design and deployment using Microsoft's internal tools and methodologies. The focus will be on practical application of the tools on code samples, development scenarios and automation scripting. The book is designed to be used both as a step-by-step guide and as a reference for modelling, designing and coordinating enterprise solutions at every level using Team System.Since the Team System product is very new, there will be some overview material to bring the reader up to speed. However, the focus is on practical implementation and a nuts & bolts approach. For example, as a case study the authors will put C# code through a series of practical tests in Chapters 17 through 22 to show the reader how to make use of the testing tools available in Team System. The book will provide code examples in both VB.NET and C# to reach the widest possible audience.
