VS 2010 Ships!

I am happy to say that VS 2010 is generally available starting today! Go to the Visual Studio home page for information.

As you are probably aware, we put a huge investment in our testing products into this release. I outlined the new features with my post Elevating the Role of the Tester with Visual Studio 2010. The Visual Studio Team Test blog is a great place to keep up with these features, as is our fantastic online documentation rooted here: Testing the Application.

For those of you doing performance testing, my team has been working very hard these past two years to deliver a boat load of new features to you in this release. Early customer feedback shows that these features will dramatically improve your productivity. Here is a list of links to blog posts and documentation on what’s new in VS 2010 for performance testers.
