I'm using a suite of WatiN tests driving IE to do some periodic sanity checking for the purposes of monitoring a site. The suite works fine when I invoke it interactively and/or when I configure the task in Task Scheduler to "Run only when the user is logged on". However, when I set it to "Run whether the user is logged on or not", and...

I'm working on a test plan for a website where some tests are taking the following path: Hit the requested URI and get the data rendered inside some table(20 rows per page). Make a database query to get the data that is supposed to be rendered in that table. Compare the 2 data row by row, they should match. Is that a correct way of d...
With ASP.NET the tag IDs are pretty volatile so to make my tests more robust I want to locate elements by their label texts. I have played some with WatiN and it does this perfectly but that project seem kind of dead nowadays so I thought I'd look into Selenium as well before I decide on a framework. I have html that looks something lik...
Is there a headless browser for .NET? I am looking for this in a testing context.

I would like to create automated UI tests for web applications in...

I've been investigating a few of them. What I have found so far that seems usable. Windmill Selenium Watin Windmill looks like it has the basics (still not sure if I can write C# unit tests with it) Watin seems awesome with Unit tests.. of the 3, it looks like Selenium is trying to be the most fully featured af the 3 (most recent v...
I'm looking for a web application testing framework that is intented to be used by customers. That is, tests will be created by users, not programmers or testers. Thus, no scripting. It has to have some kind of IDE/GUI. Selenium IDE is nice but too basic. The more or less suitable solutions I've found: CubicTest. Seems to be very nice...
I want to do some unit testing on one of my projects. This is a web project, and there will only be one copy of this program running aside from development copies. I want to write some unit tests that will use the web.config. I understand that ordinarily, a tester would stub out this external dependency because he wants to test the co...
Tools such as WebAii can be used to visit a website, and with a simple loop, in succession. If I code a lot of hits to a site in succession and/or with the ability for custom patterns, is this the same functionality as a load/stress testing tool? Thanks ...

Hello, I am trying to find a good resource on web and load testing. I'm using Visual Studio 2010 ultimate and, while i'm sure it is too early for much material to be released, i'm hoping there are some good resources for Visual Studio 2008 that are still relevant. While MSDN has some good information I'm looking for something more cohesi...
I have run into these problems several times and was never able to find a comfortable solution. Let's say my website has the domain name MyDomain.com. When I run the tests on the test machine (a continuous integration server), I will modify the HOSTS file on this machine so the MyDomain.com is mapped to this local machine instead of the ...
If anyone is using the Microsoft.Web.Testing.Lightweight framework, what's the technique for verifying that an alert has occurred?

Back in April I was listening to Herding Code episode 77 about MvcContrib. There Eric Hexter announced UI Testing Helpers as a big upcoming feature. Now several months later I was searching the web for any information about UI testing with MvcContrib. Unfortunately I found almost nothing: This sneek peek: http://codepaste.net/cw8ie4 ...
