Good introduction to VS 2005 for Database Professionals

Posted: (EET/GMT+2)

 

The latest issue of the MSDN Magazine has a good introductory article about Microsoft's new tool for (SQL Server) database users: Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition for Database Professionals.

Among other things, this new program, aimed at database people, allows them to:

  • Store database code and scripts into a Team Foundation Server (TFS) source control database,
  • Modify and maintain the database objects, like tables,
  • Generate test data into the tables and views,
  • and Unit Test stored procedures.

Sounds like a good plan to me.
