This 1.75-hour course provides key information to help developers create functional and secure web applications. Developers will spend more time debugging and refactoring code than they will initially writing it. To avoid additional debugging and refactoring cycles, unit tests can be implemented to isolate and ensure that code is working properly. If an error should make it to production, there are mechanisms to handle these issues. Whether it is debugging, refactoring, unit testing, or managing unhandled exceptions, Visual Studio® 2010 makes it easier than ever to perform these tasks. To support the development of secure web applications, several authentication options are available in the Microsoft® ASP.NET framework, including the ASP.NET Membership provider and the ability to manage different users based on their roles by using ASP.NET. This course is intended for professional web developers who use Microsoft Visual Studio in a team-based, medium-to-large size development environment.
