4 About Cenito 4 Finding your needs The balance in our way of approaching software development and meeting our customers needs is found in the intersection between people, design and technology. Designer and developer collaboration By using the latest tools and technologies we make developers and designers work together in a seamless process. This makes it possible to deliver exciting software and engaging user interfaces that bring a competitive edge.

5 Course Customization Fit your needs All courses can be customized to fit the need of your company. Course customization is something that s getting more and more common among our customers today. Some companies prefer a more contemplative pace, where the courses are held over a longer period. This allows the participants to absorb, reflect and apply the knowledge they have acquired in each session. As an option, we offer a set of assignments that help the participants to stay on track between sessions. All courses can either be condensed or expanded by removing or adding content based the need of your company. The courses can either be held in our classroom at the Cenito office in central Malmö, or another preferred location. 5 Course assignments between sessions are also an optional but popular method for both the company and the participants to make sure that all participants have understood the content from the previous session.

12 Advanced Debugging in.net 12 Software Development Overview Memory management in Microsoft.NET Framework is managed by the Common Language Runtime and the Garbage Collector. Nevertheless, it is all too easy to introduce memory leaks in your programs. These memory leaks will eventually lead to degraded performance and/or crashes due to Out Of Memory exceptions. These exceptions are not always related to a high memory usage, but can also occur as a result of other resource leaks. This hands-on course utilizes the WinDbg debugger, which is part of the Microsoft Debugging Tools for Windows. Together with the SOS debugging extension we are able to visualize the inner workings of memory management in.net Framework and to track down memory leaks. Objectives Upon course completion the participants will have knowledge in common ways of introducing and preventing memory leaks in.net Framework, by utilizing WinDbg and SOS to find them. This knowledge is applicable to all desktop versions of.net Framework, and with some exceptions also the Compact Framework and Windows Phone 8. Participants will also gain a deeper understanding of how the memory management in.net Framework works. Prerequisites Basic knowledge in.net Framework.

14 Automated UI Tests 14 Software Development Overview Introducing automated UI testing allows software quality teams to focus their efforts into designing the test cases, rather than struggle with technical details to make the tests execute properly. This makes test development more cost-efficient, and also brings a higher level of software quality in the end. With Visual Studio 2010 and the UI testing framework, Test Automation FX (TAFX for short) we will teach you how to incorporate tests in your project. You will learn the full range of UI testing from simple play and record UI tests to implement hard core custom made control part providers. The course will also help you master UI testing and provide you with tools and techniques to handle the testing requirements in your project. Objectives Upon course completion the participants will have knowledge in techniques that will help them to successfully implement UI tests using TAFX in their teams or organizations. They will gain general knowledge of Windows screen reader API:s, and UI testing techniques. Prerequisites Basic knowledge of C# or VB.NET.
