Hi
msdn has a lot of stuff on it.

Microsoft Visual Studio Team System 2008 is a platform for productive, integrated, and extensible software development life-cycle tools that helps software teams by improving communication and collaboration throughout the software development process.

It has 4 Editions: Architecture Edition, Development Edition, Test Edition, and Database Edition.
VSTS Test Edition has Unit Tests - code that exercises your project’s functions/methods
Web tests - Capture and playback of http-level interactions, including AJAX
Load tests - Simulate multiple users running your automated tests
Database tests - SQL Server 2000 and 2005 database logic validation
Performance Tests - Detailed metrics on code performance, memory, critical paths, etc

VSTS 2010 (now in beta) has much more stuff than the above list (VSTS 2008).
Hope this helps
Sukanta

I have Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate version, but when I start Test Manager, it wants me to enter a Team Foundation Server.
So when I want to test with Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate version I need some other soft? It is useless for testing without buying Team Foundation Server?

Pretty much. You really need TFS underneath. I've not heard of anyone running it without TFS.

I didn't even think they sold or licenced it on it's own without TFS. Without TFS you are not going to have most of the functionality.

Ok. I try to get TFS.
What is your experince with testing with Visual Studio 2010? I saw few cool videos, but what is a real experience?

It's excellent, but it does require time to get it configured right. It's a complicated beast with mega features but really is good.

I've not used it in anger yet. It's a little more complex than we need it to be for our lightweigh agile environment.
