Modifying an Application Configuration

An application configuration defines how Silk Test Workbench connects to and configures the application that you want to test.
  1. Open the visual test or the VB .NET script.
  2. For a visual test, click the <<Start>> step in the task pane.
  3. In the Properties pane, navigate to the Application Configurations category.
  4. Select the application configuration that you want to modify.
    • For a visual test, click into the application configuration that you want to modify and click Edit application configuration.
    • For a VB .NET script, double-click on the application configuration that you want to modify.
    The Edit Application Configuration dialog box opens.
  5. If you are testing a desktop application, type the executable name and file path of the desktop application that you want to test into the Executable Pattern text box. For example, you might type *\calc.exe to specify the Calculator.
  6. If you are testing a desktop application and you want to use a command line pattern in combination with the executable file, type the command line pattern into the Command Line Pattern text box.
  7. If you are testing a web site, type the address of the web application that you want to test into the Url to navigate text box.
  8. If you are testing a mobile native application, specify the name of the mobile application that you want to test in the Mobile app text box.
