The .NET Framework Approach

The .NET Framework approach to testing is ideal for developers and advanced QA personnel who are not familiar with coding BDL (Silk Performer’s Benchmark Description Language) scripting language, but are comfortable using Visual Studio to code .NET-enabled languages such as C#, COBOL.NET, C++ .NET, and Visual Basic.NET. With Silk Performer’s Visual Studio .NET Add-On, developers can generate Silk Performer projects and test scripts entirely from within Visual Studio by simply adding marking attributes to the methods they write in Visual Studio. The Add-On subsequently creates all BDL scripting that is required to enable the QA department to invoke newly created methods from Silk Performer.
