TSWA was always available as separte toolkit.  Since VSTS 2010, TSWA is installed by default as a part of TFS.  You can connect to it by adding "/web" at the end of the TFS URL.  So you got following URL:

   http://<your servername>:8080/tfs/web

Be aware, TSWA is always installed on the application tier.

A new Typemock add-in is released: Typemock Racer 1.0.  using the Typemock Racer, you could do a parallel inspection on your multithreaded code.  Mailny, you can use it for finding and recreate deadlocks.  You create your code the same way as a unittest, but put the attribute [ParallelInspection]above your test.

You can read everything here: http://www.typemock.com/learn_about_typemock_racer.php

Unit Testing ASP.NET? ASP.NET unit testing has never been this easy.

Typemock is launching a new product for ASP.NET developers – the ASP.NET Bundle - and for the launch will be giving out FREE licenses to bloggers and their readers.

The ASP.NET Bundle is the ultimate ASP.NET unit testing solution, and offers both Typemock Isolator, a unit test tool and Ivonna, the Isolator add-on for ASP.NET unit testing, for a bargain price.

Typemock Isolator is a leading .NET unit testing tool (C# and VB.NET) for many ‘hard to test’ technologies such as SharePoint, ASP.NET, MVC, WCF, WPF, Silverlight and more. Note that for unit testing Silverlight there is an open source Isolator add-on called SilverUnit.

The first 60 bloggers who will blog this text in their blog and tell us about it, will get a Free Isolator ASP.NET Bundle license (Typemock Isolator + Ivonna). If you post this in an ASP.NET dedicated blog, you'll get a license automatically (even if more than 60 submit) during the first week of this announcement.

Also 8 bloggers will get an additional 2 licenses (each) to give away to their readers / friends.

Go ahead, click the following link for more information on how to get your free license.

This morning I run across a new blog post on the IE blog (written by Dean Hachamovitch - General Manager, IE) about things you didn't know you can do with IE8.  I must say I did know most of them already, but if you're new to IE 8, this is a good starting point.  especially the part of Sessionstorage and how to open 2 webmail accounts at the same time.
