Microsoft 70-497 Exam — Your Questions, Answered

The 70-497 exam, officially titled Software Testing with Visual Studio, is the Microsoft exam you pass to earn the MCSD: Application Lifecycle Management certification, a credential at the Professional level.

The passing score for the 70-497 exam is 700 / 1000, and the official registration fee is $165 USD. Keep in mind that a failed attempt means paying $165 USD again in full to retake it, so book your slot only when your scores on Fast2test practice tests sit consistently above the passing line.
