To improve quality, scalability and agility, additional application life cycle management (ALM) capabilities are added to SharePoint development, such as load testing and coded UI testing support.

Windows Development

Agile Teams

You can use Web Access for your Agile plan easily, and new Kanban support is available alongside existing Scrum support.

New Test Features in Microsoft Test Manager (MTM)

New Features in Team Foundation Server
