A Test Management Tool Insight
Silvio Moser, SwissQ Consulting
Abstract
There are many different test management tools on the market today, and Microsoft is adding its own offering as part of Visual Studio 2010.
While these tools all promise to simplify the tester’s life, some do a better job at it than others.
In this speech I will highlight which features distinguish the best from the rest.
This insight will allow you to judge for yourself if Microsoft Test Manager lives up to its promise.
