VSTS Enterprise Developer & Test Tools Public Chats

I just got word from my good friend Noah that the VSTS product teams will be hosting chats on both Wednesday and Thursday this week. If you are interested in Team System, you won't want to miss them. It's a fantastic opportunity to get your questions answered and to engage Microsoft. Here are the details:

VSTS Enterprise Dev & Test Tools Public Chat

Join the Visual Studio Team System's Enterprise Developer and Test Tools team at Microsoft in an online MSDN Chat!  We will be focusing on these tools: Static Code Analysis (FxCop, PREfast), Dynamic Analysis (Profiler, Code Coverage), and Testing (Unit, Manual, Web, Load, etc).  Experts from the Dev/Test development, testing, and program management teams will be available during these two chats to answer questions.

On a related note, I will be speaking at the East of Toronto .NET User Group on January 19th. The title of the presentation is Managing Code Using Visual Studio 2005 Team System. Here's the abstract:

Visual Studio 2005 Team System provides end-to-end tools and process guidance to assist commercial and enterprise development teams through the entire software development life cycle. This session will feature technical demonstrations of three core components of Team System: Team Foundation, Team Tester and Team Developer. Some of the topics we will cover include:

• Team System Overview
• Creating applications using the Team Developer tools
• Testing your code using the Team Tester tools
• Working with Work Items and the Team System Source Control System

If you will be in the Whitby/Oshawa area next week and would like to attend the meeting, you can sign up on the events website (the details will be posted later this evening): http://gtaeast.torontoug.net/UG_Events/default.aspx

Hope to see you there!
