Yesterday I had the privilege of presenting at the Chicago - Visual Studio 2015 Launch Event. We had a great turn out for the event.

I was able to present on the same stage as [Brian Harry](http://blogs.msdn.com/b/bharry/), who gave the keynote in the morning. It was really fun to share how easy it is to perform Cloud-based Load Tests once you have created a Visual Studio Online account.

Other speakers included:

Randy Pagels, Microsoft - Increasing Developer Productivity with VS 2015

Krystin Stutesman, Xamarin - Maximizing reach through Cross Platform Mobile Development

Dave Burnison, InCycle Software - Enabling developers to leverage Cloud for Performance and Load Testing

Dan Gartner, Microsoft - Improving quality through Maximum Test Code Coverage

Anuhba Gupta, Microsoft - Leveraging modern tools to streamline Build and Release (DevOps)
