Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.WebTesting Namespace

Updated: November 2007

The Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.WebTesting namespace supplies classes that enable Web testing. This namespace includes the WebTest class which is the base class for all Web tests. The WebTestRequest and WebTestResponse classes simulate the HTTP requests and responses of the Web pages under test. These classes use the FormPostHttpBody class to simulate the use of form post parameters. Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.WebTesting also includes classes for data binding, test rules, identifying work items, query strings, HTTP context, and plug-ins that provide testing features.
