visual studio team suite : How to web test programmatically?

Good day,

I'm new to Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite web testing. Here's the action i'm trying to achieve.

On a webpage, I have a dropdownlist that is populated from a simple database table. In my tests, I want to click on each items of the dynamically populated dropdownlist, and after the postback, check if a label is visible on the page, which depends of the selected item in the dropdownlist.

However, since the dropdownlist is dynamically generated, I cannot simply 'record' and manually click on each item of the dropdownlist, so I have to code the test.

I'm pretty sure this is really simple to achieve, so I was wondering if there is a good free tutorial on web testing that I could use.

Thank you very much!

You question.

It seems to me that you need add "Data Binding" to your test.

Please read through this MSDN article.

HTH.

As long as it is fairly standard web-form postbacks you can use NUnitAsp:

http://nunitasp.sourceforge.net/

Here is a decent article on it here: ServerSide NUnitASP

NUnitAsp is no longer really active or supported, but it still works good enough for simple form testing.
