Jeff Nuckolls {Application Platform and Development Tools}

Here you'll find a little of everything as it relates to the Microsoft Application Platform (Biztalk, Visual Studio Developer tools, SQL Server, Windows, .NET development/architecture, etc...). I may even touch on WSS/MOSS from time-to-time. While my blogs are widely applicable to all verticals, I'm dedicated to the Education vertical (K-12 and Higher Education).
Web Tests in Visual Studio 2008 (screencast)

If you are interested in testing your web applications, Visual Studio offers a great way to do this without bolt-on or expensive 3rd party tools.  Auto-record, configure, and even generate coded versions (C# or VB) of your web tests, then reuse with/without Load Tests.  You can also add Data Sources (databases, CSV files, and XML files), Validation rules, and Extraction rules to your web tests.

Here I have provided a short screencast to demonstrate "some" of the features for creating Web Tests with Visual Studio 2008:

Enjoy!

Are the web tests only available in the VSTS? Or is it possible to create and run these web tests through VS Pro?

"Web Tests" are only available in VSTS or the "Team Test" edition... however "Unit Tests" are now available in the 2008 version of VS Pro.
