For a successful SharePoint deployment, it's a best practice to create a test environment first. However, SharePoint is not a simple "next, next, next" installation. There are hosts to prepare, virtual machines to configure, connections to make. So let an expert walk you through it first. In this course Spike Xavier covers the entire process of preparing, installing, and configuring a three-machine, on-premises SharePoint 2013 farm that can be used for testing and development. He'll show how to prepare a Windows 8.1 client, configure the host machine to use Hyper-V, and configure the three virtual machines that will power the SharePoint farm. Plus, learn how to install and connect Workflow Manager to take advantage of the new SharePoint Designer 2013 workflows. Topics include: Reviewing the logical and physical architecture Preparing the host machine Configuring the domain-controller virtual machine Configuring a SharePoint and SQL machine Preparing and connecting the workflow farm Validating and testing the environment Building out the environment Apply for this course

Full-trust farm solutions allow SharePoint administrators to build new features in solution packages (WSPs), upload them to the server environment, and deploy them to users without any restrictions, aka with "full trust." This has been the standard way to get new web parts and custom code to SharePoint users since 2007. If you've wanted to learn how to develop custom solutions on SharePoint—or you've been told that you need to develop a solution that integrates with SharePoint—this is the training you need. It's quick, to the point, and effective at helping new developers work with SharePoint code. Robert Bogue shows how to create new web parts, access and update data in SharePoint, work with files, and create SharePoint artifacts: lists and libraries to store data, site-level features, files, etc. He also shows how to create sandbox solutions that do not affect the rest of the server environment, and discusses execution options for solutions, including in-page, quasi-page, and out-of-page execution. Topics include: Developing a web part Connecting and configuring web parts Building sandboxed code Choosing an access method for SharePoint data Querying with CAML Fetching files Updating SharePoint data Creating and provisioning artifacts Executing long-running operations Tinkering with timer jobs Understanding SharePoint execution workflow Apply for this course
