    <p>As for the testing itself, you're probably best off using the <a href="https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/ms747327.aspx" rel="noreferrer">UI Automation</a> framework. Or if you want a more fluent and wpf/winforms/win32/swt-independent way of using the framework, you could download <a href="http://www.codeplex.com/white" rel="noreferrer">White</a> from Codeplex (provided that you're in a position to use open source code in your environment).</p> <p>For the gotchas; If you're trying to unit test your views, you will probably run in to some threading issues. For instance, if you're running NUnit the default testrunner will run in MTA (Multi-Threaded Appartment), while as WPF needs to run as STA (Single-threaded Appartment). <a href="http://miketwo.blogspot.com/2007/03/unit-testing-wpf-controls-with.html" rel="noreferrer">Mike Two</a> has a real easy getting-started on unit testing WPF, but without considering the threading issue. Josh Smith has some thoughts on the threading issue in <a href="http://joshsmithonwpf.wordpress.com/2007/07/09/using-nunit-with-wpf/" rel="noreferrer">this post</a>, and he also points to <a href="http://www.hedgate.net/articles/2007/01/08/instantiating-a-wpf-control-from-an-nunit-test/" rel="noreferrer">this article</a> by Chris Hedgate. Chris uses a modified version of Peter Provost's <a href="http://www.peterprovost.org/blog/post/NUnit-and-Multithreaded-Tests-CrossThreadTestRunner.aspx" rel="noreferrer">CrossThreadTestRunner</a> to wrap the MTA/STA issues in a bit more friendly way. </p>

    1. COre CTTR: NUnit 2.5 has STATThreadAttribute Also definitely evaluate TestAutomationFX - its really nice (not affiliated, just a customer). Also looked at White - but it didnt seem to have a recording story in the same ballpark.

    3. COBut here be dragons :) Love White.. 2+ year user on real projects. White however has issues with WPF Templating (UI Composition.. e.g. a treenode composed of 2 images, an expand button, 2 textboxes. The more fancy you get, the more torrid time you'd have in Automation. In some cases, the UI Tree doesn't show the elements that you can see on screen. WPF Snoop will however. Finally virtualization bites and large lists bite. e.g. if you have a huge tree or a grid with tons of records, finding a nested node/record is quite an exercise.

Querying!

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
