This is a presentation about Visual Studio Online.
Visual Studio Online, based on the capabilities of Team Foundation Server with additional cloud services, is the online home for your development projects. Get up and running in minutes on our cloud infrastructure without having to install or configure a single server. Visual Studio Online connects to Visual Studio, Eclipse, Xcode, and other Git clients to support development for a variety of platforms and languages.
Each Visual Studio Online account comes with five free users. As your team expands or your needs grow, mix and match user plans and resources to give each user what they need. You can also add stakeholders to your account to view project status or provide feedback on work. Visual Studio with MSDN subscribers are free to join account projects exclusive of the included five free users.
With VSO you can :
Host your code in the cloud
Host your code in the cloud to access it anytime, anywhere. Pick a traditional, centralized version control system using Team Foundation Version Control, or if you prefer a distributed approach, use Git repos.
Create private, cloud-hosted source code repositories
Whether you need to support a few, or a few thousand developers, host your source control in the cloud with advanced branching, merging and visualization capabilities.
Choose between Git or TFVC for source control
Use the source control model that works best for you: a distributed version control system using Git, or a centralized version control system using Team Foundation Version Control (TFVC). The choice is yours.
Discuss code changes with your team
Create or reply to comments on code edits to discuss source code changes with your teammates.
Manage your work in one place
Manage your project in the cloud, too. Quickly plan, manage, and track work across all your backlogs and teams with easy-to-use, fully integrated tools for agile planning and portfolio management.
Create a backlog and work in sprints
Create hierarchical backlogs at each level of your work break down to quickly define, prioritize, and assign work. Use tagging for quick categorization and filtering.
Track requirements, tasks, and bugs with work items
Use work items to assign tasks and bugs to your team, track status, and coordinate efforts within the team. Link work items to changes in code and link related work items together.
Monitor progress using Kanban boards or agile task boards
Build your applications in the cloud
Gain insight into your applications

7. What
is
ALM?
Applica'on
lifecycle
management
(ALM)
is
the
product
lifecycle
management
(governance,
development,
and
maintenance)
of
an
soMware
applicaTon.
It
encompasses
requirements
management,

9. Why
Dev
&
Test
on
Cloud?
It
is
very
fast,
you
can
easily
spin
up
machines
and
other
stuff
You
have
a
whole
bunch
of
services
waiTng
to
be
used
You
can
scale
(up
and
out)
–
scale
up?
scale

10. Why
Dev
&
Test
on
Cloud?
You
can
stress
and
load
test
It
can
be
a
sandbox
environment
It’s
a
place
for
doing
trainings,
learning
and
put
demos
The
Cloud
helps
