• Visual Studio Team System UIApp Revisited

  Back to the UIApp hidden field. Apparently, the real issue is that it needs to be grabbed in real time. A user fills out a form and submits it to create a new application. After submission, UIApp is created by the server, supplied with a value and is sent client-side with the next web page. That page is created client-side referencing UIApp. So far during web testing, I have to supply a static value into the test for the first appearance o ...Show All
