Complex software environments require more in-depth testing. This book delivers the detailed guidance you need to plan and execute testing for the solutions you develop with Microsoft Patterns & Practices application blocks. Whether you're customizing the application blocks or integrating them into existing applications, you'll understand the key considerations for verifying that your code meets its requirements for performance, availability, scalability, compatibility, globalization, and security features. You'll find code examples, sample test cases, and checklists that demonstrate how to plan and implement each type of test; the guide also recommends tools to use to run the tests.

While this book was designed specifically for use in testing Microsoft Patterns & Practices application blocks, it also provides an excellent resource for testing other .NET code.

All Patterns & Practices guides are reviewed and approved by Microsoft engineering teams, consultants, partners, and customers-delivering accurate, real-world information that's been technically validated and tested.
