Load Testing in Test Studio 2013 R2
Web applications are a lot more complicated these days than even a few years ago.

Since many web applications require user-specific values (like session IDs) to be returned with requests, this feature allows load test scenarios to simulate valid user traffic.

Web ASP.NET MVC
I Downloaded UI for ASP.NET MVC. Now What?

30 Days of TDD – Day 17 – Specifying Order of Execution in Mocks
We’ll continue developing our e-commerce application today by looking closer at how we will utilize the Order Fulfillment service.

Analytics: a turnkey solution for development teams

Real-Time Reporting with SignalR, Kendo UI DataViz, and Icenium Part 2
In the first part of this series, we created our SignalR hub and added a simple web form that allowed us to push data to our client apps in real-time. With our server-side code and hub complete, we now need to get into Icenium and create the most important part of our project - the hybrid mobile app. For this exercise we are going to stay inside of Visual Studio and use the new Icenium Extension for Visual Studio.
