I do not as I target both browsers, as well as Chrome. If you develop and then functional test in just one browser, the other browser will most likely display things a bit differently. That is why I test in IE/Edge, FF, and Chrome and even some older IE versions.
ASP.Net is a little vague as there is MVC or Web Forms. HTML is generated in Web Forms, where there could be a difference. I hand code my HTML and CSS and don't rely on any GridView HeaderStyle, FooterStyle, BackColor, ForeColor, eceterra as I use the CSS equivalents and then call my styles.

Thank you! I find nothing more annoying than trying to use a website that only works on the Name of preferred browser browser because they don't like Name of hated browser. Especially when a customer has paid money for the use of the technology or service that is accessed through the webpage.
I get that some browsers don't play as nice as others. But nothing says we don't care about our customers then not taking the time or putting in the effort to assure that all their customers can fill in the forms and click the buy button regardless of the page designer's preference.

I have to disagree with you on this.
Is it the developer's fault that the company behind the worlds most hated browser constantly ignored standards as set by committees so that they could further their proprietary "take on things" in order to further their bottom line in making the internet their own?
The company behind the worlds most hated browser has caused so much hardship for web developers that the kilowatt hours used in electricity to make things work in that thing they call a browser has probably directly attributed to global warming.
*?!k IE.

Yes.
Or at least "Yes if he didn't test against it, knowing full well that it doesn't work the same".
This is the real world: we have to accept that there are good, bad, and indifferent browsers out there and that users will use what they feel comfortable with. Our job is to make the user happy and productive, not to ignore the real world cases and do what is easy for us!
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

No, it's not the fault of the website developer, but, I think there are too many examples of well designed sites out there that work in whatever browser I use to make that assessment. Code Project is a good example. There are others like Amazon, Google, Musicians Friend, Heck even Apple works well regardless of the browser I use.
Yes, I agree that it takes more time (expense) to do this. And I agree the M$ needs to improve IE or Edge or whatever they are calling it this week. The the hard fact is, there are many many people who don't use the "better" browsers. Aunt Mabel with her $125.00 laptop just wants to buy the Beanie Baby of the week, not bother with poorly designed websites, she'll go where she can spend her money. Without needing to bother with which browser she needs to use.

Oh, there is, but the definition of the word "music" has changed to be something to do with money for nothing.

No way. VB's LEFT function truncated it for you, which is of course what I would want it to do. Oh, so easy.

Well, he did mention VB. Which teaches everyone bad habits.

Since when is increasing programmer/developer (Whatever the term hipsters are using these days...) "teaching bad habits" ?

For one, VB teaches its users to take shortcuts.
Like leaving words out of your sentences, and then taking for granted that others will understand what you meant just by context.
