Enhancements in VSTS

The enhancements in VSTS are
1)      Find – You can now do a search in playback UI which will search request headers/bodies, response headers/bodies and the web test context.
2)      Add Extraction Rule – In the playback UI, you can now highlight some text in the response and select “Add Extraction Rule”.  This will automatically add a rule the web test.
3)      Goto webtest – This option will jump you from the request you are on in the playback UI to the same request in the web test.  Also if you are on a query string or form post parameter, it will jump you to that parameter in the web test editor.
4)      Show Recorded Result – This option will load a playback session with what was recorded.  During recording, we now create a web test result of what was recorded.  This will help when you want to try and figure out what is different between your current playback session and the recorded session.
