VmWare has released their v6.0 béta. A lot of cool features like:
Support for Windows Vista – Use Windows Vista as host operating system
Multiple monitor display – You can configure a VM to span multiple monitors, or multiple VMs to each display on separate monitors
Automation APIs (VIX API 2.0) – You can write scripts and programs to automate VM testing
Headless mode – You can run VMs in the background without the Workstation UI
The feature that interests me is this one:
Integrated Virtual Debugger – Workstation integrates with Visual Studio and Eclipse so you can deploy, run, and debug programs in a VM directly from your preferred IDE
Does this really mean that in the future I can deploy my app to a VM running a certain config??? I really hope so this would be very very cool!
if you like to participate in the beta program you can do so here: http://www.vmware.com/products/beta/ws/
