Hi! I've a WCF Service, that uses entity framework (with POCO objects). One methods returns a list of users.

Hi All, I'm using the WCFTestClient to debug a service. This normally works like a charm. This particular service is using SSL and I need to pass the user name and password. I can right click and edit the config file, but I do not see a place where I can inject the user name and password. On the normal client app for this service, we pro...

I know for WCF to work with a membership provider you have to explicitly configure it: (e.g. http://www.codewrecks.com/blog/index.php/2009/09/08/use-aspnet-membership-provider-with-a-wcf-svc-service/) But if you already have the ASP.NET site using it, can't you prevent anonymous access to the service simply by doing the following? <l...

I see several other questions about load testing web services. But as far as I can tell those are all synchronous load testing tools. (Meaning they send a ton of requests but the go one at a time.) I am looking for a tool where I can say, "I want 100 requests to be launched at the exact same time". Now, I am new to the whole load tes...
I want to automatically test if my WCF operation and data contracts have breaking changes between CI builds. EDIT: I am thinking of this as an automated integration test. Additive changes to the WCF contracts should not fail the test. Breaking changes should fail the test. I want to know the moment its broken. Additive changes don't br...
