UI automation for Silverlight apps now available in feature pack 2 for VS 2010

Visual Studio 2010 Feature Pack 2 is now available to MSDN subscribers.

The feature pack contains some much awaited bits with which you can:

  • Use Microsoft Test Manager to capture and playback action recordings for Silverlight 4 applications.
  • Create coded UI tests for Silverlight 4 applications with Visual Studio 2010 Premium or Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate.
  • Edit coded UI tests using a graphical editor with Visual Studio 2010 Premium or Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate.
  • Use action recordings to fast forward through manual tests that need to support Mozilla Firefox 3.5 and 3.6.
  • Run coded UI tests for web applications using Mozilla Firefox 3.5 and 3.6 with Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Premium or Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate.

I know a lot of you have been waiting for the Silverlight automation functionality to be released – give this a spin and let us know your feedback!
