• mandoman TFS time info

  How do I get the TFS time from a client I tried using the TFS object but all I could get was the time zone info of the server and not the actual server time.

• ChiefGeek FxCop 1.35 Copy as SuppressMessage

  I just discovered the neat feature that I can right click on an excluded violation and select "Copy As SuppressMessage" to get a SuppressMessage attribute to paste in my source file.

  Hi, I have a situation where I want the virtual users to sleep for a random amount of time.  Can I achieve this without using the WebTestRequest class, bcos in this situation there is no request at that point.
