Testing C# Code in Production with Scientist.NET

by Jason Roberts

Even if we have unit tests in place, problems can still occur when the code is released to production. This course will show you how to use Scientist.NET to test the new code in production to gain greater confidence before starting to use it.

What you'll learn

Errors in production code can be costly to fix, more stressful for the development team, and frustrating for the end-user. In this course, Testing C# Code in Production with Scientist.NET, you will get to see how Scientist.NET allows sections of the application to be changed more safely by running both the existing code alongside the new code in production. You'll begin with an introduction to Scientist.NET before installing it and writing your first experiment. Next, you'll learn how to customize the configuration of experiments. Finally, you'll learn how to publish experiment data to SQL Server and analyze experiment results. After completing this course, you'll be ready to start testing new code in production using Scientist.NET before starting to use it.
