Abstract: CodedUI tests within Visual Studio makes it easy for developers together with tester to create, fully-automated, functional user interface tests. These tests alert the team in an, easy to execute, automated way about regressions. CodedUI tests are easy to create for different UI technologies. But, all kinds of test automation needs an investment. To get a good return on this test automation investment you need to create CodedUI tests in a robust manner which can sustain changes to your application over time.

In this session you will see how maintainable CodedUI tests can be created and how the test infrastructure needs to be configured for efficient execution.
