Run Unit Tests With Automatic DBPro DB Deploy from a Team Build
This time I’m genuinely surprised that no one has tackled this and posted it on a blog or to the DBPro or Team System forums. When you add a unit test for a stored procedure in Visual Studio Team System for Database Professionals (DBPro) for the first time, you get the dialog asking how you…
