Visual Studio 2015 IDE Features

IntelliTest(aka Smart Unit Tests)Unit testing – now better!Use IntelliTest to quickly generate relevant unit tests for your code - automaticallyIntelliTest dramatically reduces the effort required for creating unit tests for new or existing code so you can focus on building new features insteadEasily create sets of unit tests for legacy code that has never been looked at before and increase path coverage and code quality

Code Maps

Visualize your codeMap relationships in code with code maps. When you create code maps, they appear next to the code editorThis lets you focus on the task at hand because you can see your place while you work and helps you understand relationships in codeNavigate these relationships using the map which updates as you traverse your code base

Microsoft Fakes

Unit test isolationImprove your unit tests using Microsoft Fakes. Fakes help you isolate the code you are testing by replacing other parts of the application with stubs or shims. These are small pieces of code that are under the control of your testsBy isolating your code for testing, you know that if the test fails, the cause is there and not somewhere else. Stubs and shims also let you test your code even if parts of your application are not working yet

Coded UI

Automate manual testingReduce the burden of manual regression testing by using the Coded UI test framework to fully automate UI testingYou can create a coded UI test that can test that the user interface for an application functions correctly. The coded UI test performs actions on the user interface controls for an application and verifies that the correct controls are displayed with the correct values

PerformanceTestingKnow your limitsVisual Studio makes integrating Load Testing into your development process easy and will help you avoid nasty surprises in productionWhether those surprises are caused by world-wide distribution, the scale of your customer base or problems that only manifest in multi-day runs – Visual Studio Load Testing will give you the analytics to solve those problems before you deploy

IntelliTrace

No more «No Repro»Diagnosing unexpected behavior can sometimes take hours of searching through source code and repeated guesses where to set breakpointsUsing the diagnostic tools in Visual Studio 2015 and IntelliTrace you can see the history of your code’s execution and navigate back in time to inspect state without manually setting breakpoints

.net MemoryDump AnalysisPrevent perf issuesUse comprehensive profiling tools without the debugger to get deeper insights into your app’s performance, including CPU, GPU, and memory usage, UI responsiveness, and network utilization

Visual Debugging

Visualize your codeCode Map Debugger Integration enables you to debug complex software problems without getting lost. See exactly where issues happen at debug time, visualize relationships and quickly find and fix problems in your code.
