    <p>We have an <strong>old asp.net application</strong> that has no unit tests, integration tests, component tests or UI/functional tests - surprise!</p> <p>Now, we'd like to introduce some <strong>automated system testing</strong> that tests the functionality so that when something breaks in the app we immediately get notified!</p> <p>For example, the <strong>user registration form</strong> where user can enter username and email address and register in the system.</p> <p>It's too late/expensive to introduce unit tests (as the current design is not unit testable) so the most important thing now is writing Automated System Tests.</p> <p>For example, we'd like to write a test in <strong>C#</strong> which opens the browser, enters the data to the text boxes, clicks on the Register button then our test checks whether the data is inserted into the database and whether a verification email is sent and at the end whether a proper message is shown to the user (of course this is only the main scenarios and there would be numerous special cases). Basically not testing isolated units but testing whether the whole process works!</p> <p>So, what tool could I use to help me write such test and automating it?</p> <p>What approach would you recommend to use?</p> <p>I had a look at Selenium and Fitnesse but they don't seem to allow me write C# code to test database, etc. I looked at the SoapUI/LoadUI same issue. WatiN could possibly be used, not sure. any thoughts/recommendations are very much appreciated.</p> <p>Hope the question is clear.</p> <p>Many thanks,</p>

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
