Project Execution

1. Microsoft: Windows Vista (WSE)

Microsoft Windows Vista Sustained engineering is the
process of providing sustenance services to the Vista
product from the date the OS is in the market. The sustained
engineering begins on the released version and MS
development begins on the next version. Windows Sustained
Engineering (WSE) is already supporting the previous
version. When a Vista user reports a problem via Product
Support Services or vulnerability it is reported through the
Security Response Centre, WSE helps triage the problem and
Description then develops and tests the appropriate hot fix, security
patch, or update for release via Windows Update and
inclusion in the next service pack for that version. WSE must
also ensure that any change to the code to fix the problem
or vulnerability is incorporated in the next version and, if
appropriate, in the next service pack for the previous
version. At Wipro As a Vendor to MS we are required to
heavily regress test the Vista OS functionality and improve
the coverage using Microsoft’s rich set of windows testing
tools and technologies.

3. Microsoft - OM Tools
 Microsoft releases number of products to the market almost
on a daily basis. To create web pages to market them is a
tedious process. So they need to come up with a tool code
named “Red Stapler” to automate the process. We designed
a windows application to produce XML files in a specific
format for feeding data to the Microsoft’s showcase website
www.microsoft.com. The application provides provision for
configuring various parameters associated with a Microsoft
product, like pricing and logo information that is displayed
on the Microsoft’s website. The tool provides hundreds of

requests, change requests, and reporting requests; and
creation central location allowing changes in Microsoft’s
order management platform to be audited and housing
critical tenant information for issue.
