Enabling Extensions for Applications Under Test

This functionality is supported only if you are using the Classic Agent.

This section describes how you can use extensions to extend the capabilities of a program or the data that is available to the program.

An extension is a file that serves to extend the capabilities of, or the data available to, a basic program. Silk Test Classic provides extensions for testing applications that use non-standard controls in specific development and browser environments.

For information about new features, supported platforms, and tested versions, refer to the Release Notes.

If you are using a project, the extension configuration information is stored in the partner.ini file. If you are not using a project, the extension configuration information is stored in the extend.ini file.

When you enable extensions, Silk Test Classic adds an include file based on the technology or browser type that you enable to the Use files location in the Runtime Options dialog box. Extensions that use technologies on the Classic Agent are located in the <Silk Test Classic project directory>\extend\ directory.
