This full day training course brings developers up-to-speed on the new features
and benefits of Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate, Team Foundation Server 2013 and SharePoint
2013. With detailed insight into project management, requirements gathering, user
stories, testing, workflow, document managemet and Office integration, attendees

2013 in their organization.
Session 1: Team Foundation Server 2013
Team Foundation Server 2013 (TFS) for Successful Project Management
Visual Studio Ultimate (formerly Visual Studio Team System (VSTS)) and Team Foundation
Server (TFS) are the cornerstones of development on the Microsoft .NET platform.
These are the best tools for a project manager to have successful projects and for
the developers to have a focused and smooth software development process.
Come and see Adam Cogan, Microsoft Regional Director, VSTS Champ and Chief Architect
from SSW show you:
- How to successfully gather requirements with User stories
- The right way to use work items
- The way to complete a work items and send a 'done'
- How to use templates for your standard work items
- The extra work items that developers always forget
- What is good and bad about Excel and Project integration
- What you can use from the built in reporting as well as the Project portals available
from the SharePoint dashboard
- The important reports to give your Project Manager
Walk away knowing how to see your project health and progress. Visual Studio Ultimate
is designed to help address many of these traditional problems faced by project
managers. It does so by providing a set of integrated tools to help teams improve
their software development activities and to help project managers better support
the software development processes.
During this session we will cover the lifecycle of creating work items and tracking
of releases using Visual Studio Ultimate and Team Foundation Server.
Visual Studio 2013 and TFS (formerly Team System) - An ALM Overview
Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 ALM (formerly Team System) Team System is an integrated software development platform
to build the mission-critical applications that businesses depend on. It extends
Visual Studio's integrated and productive experience from the developer to the entire
development team, by delivering powerful new role-based tools for software architects,
developers, testers and project managers (or Scrum Masters if you are agile). In this session you will see an overview
of these tools and how they can improve your software development cycle.
Visual Studio 2013 Testing with Team Foundation Server (TFS) 2013 - the life of
a bug
Visual Studio 2013 makes up a large part of a .Net developers life. This session
will delve into the 'life of a bug' by taking a walk in the shoes of an everyday
bug from discovery to release (and the steps that make up the in between). Come
along and check out the new features that will make you happier by making your code
better, your job easier, and your team more productive by reducing the obstacles
you face in your everyday coding life. Learn:
- What the new features for testers and developers
- How you now care - even if the tester can't reproduce the bug
- How to stop struggling to find the source of the bug in your code
- How can you streamline the testing process and make sure you don't repeat the same
bugs
- How to automate more and reproduce bugs easier and discover problems sooner.
Session 2: SharePoint 2013
What's new in SharePoint 2013
In this session Adam Cogan will provide information about what is new in SharePoint
2013 and his personal favorites. The SharePoint Team has invested in many including:
- UX support for Silverlight and Ajax
- Their Web Content Management System
- Digital Asset Management System (for videos)
- Visual Studio 2013 tools for SharePoint 2013
- Developer Platform
- Office 2013 integration
- RESTful Web API
- Tagging and Rating
Lets see what's good and what's not.
Something About Mary (SharePoint and Office 2013)
Come see Adam Cogan explain what works well with SharePoint and Office for Mary
and the other knowledge workers.
First you will get an overview of what is great about having SharePoint in your
business. Then see real world examples of:
- Using SharePoint 2013 and Office 2013 together
- Where it fits with other important Microsoft products like CRM 4 and TFS
- Examples of how Word and Excel can be integrated into business processes (separate
from SharePoint)
- Examples of how Word, Excel, PowerPoint can be combined with SharePoint to improve
visibility/searchability/versioning across the company
- Overview of how data can be synchronized between SharePoint and external data sources
(eg using Access and Excel)
- Overview of what 'workflow' (really!) means
- How Office can be incorporated into company workflows with SharePoint
- Extending SharePoint with Office SharePoint Designer 2013 (free!)
- Where VBA and VSTO fit in terms of how solutions can be developed
- Examples of other interesting Office/SharePoint integrations (eg the the Atlassian
SharePoint Connector and Atlassian Office Connector)
This is a good chance for you to consider new ways of using Office in your company,
along with pitfalls to avoid. Adam gets excited about this session because too often
companies limit Office to just an email application, word processor and spreadsheet
- completely missing the positive impact it can have on the entire business process.
