Visualization and simulation tools for Windows Workflow Foundation

Question

Hi all,

I'm looking for visualization/simulation tools for Windows Workflow Foundation, which can show how certain data moves down the workflow and gets manipulated until the end result is reached. This is a bit similar to some IBM Rational modeling tools for Websphere.

Can someone recommend a product (preferably free, but commercial products are an option) and point me in the right direction?

Answer 1

Have you taken a look at this example from MSDN?

On a different option, full blown commercial product like K2 BlackPearl that is built on top of WF offer this type of capability albeit very costly.

Answer 2

A friend pointed me to the Workflow Simulator on MSDN, and it works great.

It's also free and open source (under the MS-Public License).

Any other suggestions guys?
