In this article I will show how to employ Windows Workflow Foundation (WF) for testing. Originally, Microsoft aimed WF on describing business processes inside an application. The idea is that we can use this technology to describe the process of testing as well. Tester designs a test using visual diagram and, what is more important, he can execute this test automatically.
After reading the article you will learn:
* How to automate your tests using Workflow Foundation
* How to automatically check results of the tests
* How to reuse the tests in other tests you are developing
* How to extend Workflow Foundation to satisfy your specific testing needs
To demonstrate all the "How-Tos" I created TestflowFramework on C# and attached it to the article. I expect you have had enough knowlege of WF and C# to say "hello world". The rest of stuff I will explain below.
