OpenText Functional Testing .NET Add-in Extensibility readme
This page provides information about the OpenText Functional Testing .NET Add-in Extensibility SDK.
Overview
The OpenText Functional Testing .NET Add-in Extensibility SDK enables you to develop custom .NET Windows Forms controls that the .NET Add-in does not support out-of-the-box.
Each version of the SDK supports working with the matching version of OpenText Functional Testing.
OpenText Functional Testing is backwards compatible, and enables you to run tests and components on custom controls using toolkit support sets developed with earlier versions of .NET Add-in Extensibility as well.
The SDK supplies project templates for Visual Studio, which facilitate the process of creating custom support.
Installation and deployment
Install the .NET Add-in Extensibility SDK and develop the toolkit support set for your .NET controls on any computer.
After creating custom support, deploy it to OpenText Functional Testing, enabling recognition of custom controls and support of the appropriate properties and test object methods.
Note: The .NET Add-in Extensibility SDK is required only for developing the support.
You do not need to install it on each OpenText Functional Testing computer that users the support.
For more details, see Installing the extensibility SDK.
