We have business users that we’d like to get involved writing webtests for our project, but purchasing full Visual Studio licenses just for this purpose seems like overkill.
Are there any open source or third-party tools that can be used to produce webtests that can be read by Visual Studio?
I would prefer a tool that integrates into IE or Firefox and can generate tests as simply as the point-and-click method that the Visual Studio integration provides.
While I would consider Selenium and Watin/Watir as valuable alternatives, they are preety robust testing solutions, I don’t think neither would allow you to record .webtests as done by VisualStudio 2008 out of the box. I believe they record unit tests which is fine if that is what you want. The only tool that I know that does exactly what you are asking for is Fiddler.
