I have observed many times new bees ask questions like which tool set is best for complete .NET development, so just thought of writing complete set of tools here in this blog which is useful in different parts of .NET software development.
1. Development
1. Development
2. Version Control
Team Foundation Server 2012
3. Most Intelligent Tool for code refactoring, code quality analysis, code cleanup, navigation, code
generation, unit testing and code templates
Resharper
4. Testing
Visual Studio 2012 Update 3 - You need to install update 2 (now merged in update 3) to use all automated testing features in .NET 2012
5. Web Debugging Proxy
Fiddler
6. JSON Validation
JSONLINT
7. To test REST and WSDL services
SOAP UI
8. Best Database Tied up with Microsoft (as per my experience)
SQL Server 2012
9. One more important tool, get rid of Note Pad and use Note Pad ++ as this supports all advance data format which are required in .NET development , REST (SOAP) , JSON, XML etc.
