The new Sitefinity Web Tests Console Demo

The new Sitefinity Web Tests Console Demo you can download from here.

We are happy to introduce the Demo version of our new testing tool – “Sitefinity Web Tests Console”.
It is based on the same “WebAii v1.1” framework as our Web UI test studio.
In order to run the Sitefinity Web Tests Console you need to have Sitefinity v.3.6 Hotfix Project, “WebAii v1.1” framework installed(it is free of charge and it can be downloaded from our partner ArtOfTest official site), .NET Framework 3.5, SQL express(it is also free of charge and can be downloaded from our other partner Microsoft) and just for now only Internet Explorer v. 7 is supported.
As this is just a DEMO there are still issues with Windows 64bit editions and Windows Server 2008, of course we will do our best to fix them for the official version.

Currently, Sitefinity Test Console consists of two parts: 

    1. The already Built-in tests 
        • Currently all the Modules (exp. Newsletters) basic functionality test are included and the tests work if the IDs of the controls are not changed. 
    2. Custom step builder 
        • The Custom step builder acts as a test recorder. You write your own scenarios using only the URL of the pages you need and the ID of control you want to interact
with (currently only existence of the Controls can be Verified and the Click action for controls such as buttons, anchor etc…)
