Software Testing with Visual Studio: 070-497 Exam Premium File as PDF & Test Engine

The 070-497 exam, officially titled Software Testing with Visual Studio, is the qualifying test for the MCSD: Application Lifecycle Management certification from Microsoft, a credential at the Professional level. Passing it proves you have the skills employers look for in certified professionals, and it can also support progress toward related credentials such as Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP).

The Microsoft Software Testing with Visual Studio exam gives you 120 minutes to work through 40-60 questions. That is a steady pace with little room for second-guessing, so train yourself to read each question once, flag the difficult ones, and keep moving. Before exam day, sit at least two full timed sessions in the Fast2test test engine — when the clock feels familiar, it stops being a threat.

You need 700 / 1000 to pass, and the official registration fee is $165 USD. Fall short and you pay that fee in full again for every retake, which makes solid preparation the cheaper option by far. Work through the Fast2test practice questions until you score comfortably above the passing mark, then book your seat.

No formal prerequisites; recommended experience with Visual Studio 2012 and software testing processes Eligibility rules can change over time, so before you register, confirm the latest requirements on the official exam page: Microsoft 070-497 exam overview.
