Editor's Notes
- #21 Letâs take a closer look at the Visual Studio Lab Management solution. So what does a logical configuration look like if you want to leverage the Lab Management feature?<Click>It starts with having an Active Directory domain.<Click>Next, youâll need a System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008 R2, or just SCVMM, installation. This is also included in the Ultimate or Test Professional MSDN subscriptions.<Click>SCVMM can be configured a number of different ways from simple single server configurations to richer and more scalable configurations.<Click>For this example, Iâve got a main SCVMM server and second server to host my virtual machines. In SCVMM parlance, this is known as a library server and you have as many as you want or need.<Click>In order to work with virtual environments, youâll need one or more Hyper-V hosts.<Click>SCVMM is the engine that manages your VMs. As needed you move VMs from your library server and deploy them on your Hyper-V hosts for used by test and development.<Click>You use Team Foundation Server, with Lab Management configured, and one or more build servers to orchestrate and execute your build-deploy-test workflows.<Click>Developers run Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate.<Click>Testers use Visual Studio Test Professional 2010.<Click>Developers write code and check it into TFS.<Click>A workflow build is started on a build server.<Click>As part of the build, the workflow snapshots the environment, deploys the build output, and runs testsâall based upon the build configuration.<Click>Once complete âŚ<Click>Testers can connect to and use the newly updated environment.<Click>Using Microsoft Test Manager and the Microsoft Test Runner, testers can file rich actionable bugs with links to âŚ<Click>⌠environment snapshots.<Click>The bug is assigned to a developer. The developer reviews the bug and IntelliTrace log if provided.<Click>Developer then can connect to the environment âŚ<Click>⌠in the exact state at which the bug was filed to easily pinpoint and then ultimately âŚ<Click>⌠fix he bug.
