This book shows software developers how to use Application Life cycle Management (ALM) with Visual Studio to streamline software design and deployment using Microsoft's internal tools and methodologies. The focus is 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 ALM. The focus is on practical implementation, with a nuts and bolts approach. For example, as a case study the authors will put C# code through a series of practical tests to show the reader how to make use of the testing tools available in ALM. The authors also provides examples demonstrating new capabilities for supporting non-Microsoft projects, including iOS, MacOS, Java and Android development. This edition is forward-compatible with future product releases.
