Hi everyone

My web project runs on machine (local host) successfully. I deployed it on
development server and I met a lot of troubles. I need your solutions for
these

1> What is the best way to maintain my application?
Here what I did and I don't think this is a good way.
Everytime I want to implement my project, I copy files or ftp files from
the server back to my machine, fix it on my machine and deploy it back to
the server. This is troublesome since application involves a lot of people
and some code are hardcoded in the web.config to meet expectations of the
path of server. It's really hard for me maintain this large scale web
application

2> What I saw on machine does not act exactly what I saw when I run on
development server

I have validation checks for textboxes which require user to fill in. It
will report an error message and expect user to fill it out before can move
next. After everytime, an instruction is satisfied it will update database.
When testing on my local machine it does not allow to procceed to the next
page if instruction is not satisfied. On my server, it just keeps letting
user goes through and ingore all the validation checks

3> I would like to know what is the best way to start learning how to use
Web Application Test? I tried to practice on the tool. However I still have
no clue how to use it. Any instruction on this would be so helpful for me to
stimulate testing scenarios for the project.


Thanks for everyone

Most preferred method is xcopy deployment but as you say the site is large.
but unless you have a physical access to the server thats your best bet. if
however you have physical access to the server, try packing the application
using windows installer.

in the web root you will find a directory call "aspnet_client". that is the
directory that has validation scripts. That is normally there in a properly
configure web root. if your production box doesnt have it then the
validation controls wont work ( i deleted mine cause i did not know it
then... got it working when i uploaded them)
