With Visual Studio Lab Management 2010, you can easily and rapidly provision environments at a known clean state for a predicable build-deploy-test workflow, as well as re-use environments in a repeatable and consistent manner. You can even use virtual machine templates to create exact copies of a configuration without running into the naming conflicts that often occur in virtualized environments. Lab Management also enables testers to capture snapshots of all the virtual machines in an environment during test execution and attach it to the bugs they file. From the bug form inside the Visual Studio IDE, developers connect to the environment directly. This lets developers see exactly what the tester saw and more easily identify the root cause of the problem.
You need one of the following Visual Studio 2010 editions to have access to the Virtual Lab Management Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate with MSDN › Visual Studio 2010 Test Professional with MSDN ›
