Creating a New Project for the Insurance Company Web Application

The type of project that you select determines the default Agent. For Web application projects, the Open Agent is automatically set as the default agent. Silk Test Classic uses the default agent when configuring an application and recording a test case.

  1. Click File > New Project, or click Open Project > New Project on the Basic workflow bar. The Create Project dialog box opens.
  2. Type a project name and a description in the appropriate fields.
  3. Click OK to save your project in the default location, C:\Users\<Current user>\Documents\Silk Test Classic Projects. Silk Test Classic creates a <Project name> folder within the specified directory, saves the projectname.vtp and projectname.ini to this location and copies the extension .ini files, which are appexpex.ini, axext.ini, domex.ini, and javaex.ini, to the extend subdirectory. If you do not want to save your project in the default location, click Browse and specify the folder in which you want to save your project.

    Silk Test Classic creates your project and displays nodes on the Files and Global tabs for the files and resources associated with this project.
