Visual Studio Test Professional Reviews

We use the solution for performance analysis.

The debugging feature is valuable. We also use the solution for automation. The product has a lot of features.

We need high-end machines to use Visual Studio. The vendor must release a lightweight version of the solution.

I have been using the solution for more than four years.

Sometimes, we face some performance issues but do not face downtime. I rate the tool’s stability a nine out of ten.

The tool is scalable. The solution releases a new version every day. The tool has improved in various areas in the last four years.

Whenever we face challenges, we contact support. The support team is very good. The team responds and solves our issues immediately. The team provides support 24/7.

We used the community version before. We decided to use Visual Studio Test Professional because we were scaling our business, and it has more features. It also provides more support compared to the community version. While using the community version, we had to raise a request to the support team and wait for a response. However, now we can contact the team and get support immediately.

The initial setup is very easy and straightforward. The configuration and deployment can be done within a day. Our team is fast.

The product has saved us time and money.

Overall, I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

When using Visual Studio, we have two type types of reports that we use including TFS and Git. I use TFS to open the solutions, make any changes and to complete tests for quality program production.

The most valuable feature has been to store all our packages in one place including SSIS packages, SQL tables, TFS and SSR.

The server that we use is very slow so that is concerning for us.

We have been using this solution for almost a year.

This solution is not that stable. The server that we use is very slow so that is concerning for us.

This solution is scalable. 

We have our own tech support in the office so we do not use their customer support.

The initial setup is straightforward. We have partial scripts and we used them to run the setup using Octopus.

I would advise others to save changes in their repository or it might get lost.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten. 

I use it for coding, debugging, and other usual things.

It is very easy to use. You can handle a lot of things together at once in one package, which is a good point for us.

It is not good in terms of performance. When you open Visual Studio, you have to wait for a while to process your code. It uses a lot of resources and has a lot of features. If we could disable some of the features, it would be lighter and faster to use. Nowadays, for some of the projects, we use VS Code for JavaScript or Python. VS Code is very light and easy to use, whereas, in Visual Studio, we have to wait because it takes time to compile or run a project. It has a lot of competitors in terms of performance, such as Intelligent ID. Intelligent ID is very easy to use. It has many features, and it is lighter to use than Visual Studio.

In terms of error handling, sometimes, it shows an error before you finish your code, which can be improved. It would be good if it has a version for Linux. I use VS Code on Linux, but I am not sure if Visual Studio has a version for Linux.

I have been using this solution for four or five years. 

I haven't contacted their technical support. We always search on the web. You can easily find most of the information on the web or Microsoft site. They have a big community, and you can find the information very easily.

The initial installation is very good and easy. In 2015, they added a visual installer, which made it easier than before. Nowadays, we use Visual Studio to change or modify some of the packages, and it is much easier than before.

I would recommend this solution. I would rate Visual Studio Test Professional a seven out of ten.

I am using Visual Studio Code. Currently, Visual Studio is used for testing code, including unit testing. For Azure orchestration, we use GitLab.

The integrated unit testing and extensive search features have made things easier.

The unit testing is integrated with Git. Searching is extensive and helpful.

The Git extensions are very basic and can be more extensive compared to other software focused on Git, like GitTower or SmartGit.

It's been six months since I last used Visual Studio. Recently, I haven't faced any issues.

No instability issues are mentioned.

No scalability issues are mentioned.

I have not used customer support, so I cannot comment on it.

We used Zoom for communication. I have not used it for a long time now. We have moved to using Teams.

The IT department handles certain aspects, and I am not informed about them.

GitHub Copilot hasn't been started yet, and Visual Studio Test Professional is used for testing.

I'd rate the solution seven out of ten.

Visual Studio Test Professional's deployment is not complex. 

Our larger organization has three organizations that are directly involved in working with the product. One organization focuses on security, while another is engaged in software development, particularly creating interfaces, software links, and product integrations. I rate it a seven out of ten. 

We are primarily using Visual Studio Test Professional for the C Sharp environment.

It is a good and user-friendly tool.

The product is only available on Windows. It could be available for multiple platforms and other operating systems like Mac with a native port. It is challenging to use it for larger projects. Also, it needs to be rewritten with additional features.

We have been using Visual Studio Test Professional for more than twenty years.

It is a very robust and stable product.

The product needs to be more scalable. It requires a good set of machines to perform well.

The initial setup process is long and tedious. It works like installing an operating system on the server and takes an hour to complete. We run the setup, select the components and features, and install it on the system. It is well organized but a very lengthy process.

I installed the product myself.

The product generates very low revenues for us.

We have licensing for Visual Studio Community edition.

I would not recommend Visual Studio Test Professional. I rate it an eight out of ten.

The tool is stable.

The tool is scalable. Three people use the product in our company. We have plans to increase the number of users to five or six.

The initial setup was straightforward. It took us 15 to 20 minutes to deploy the solution.

We’re software engineers. The deployment can be done in-house.

I would recommend the product to others. Overall, I rate the tool an eight out of ten.
