This update contains a number of improvements to the WCF Load Test tool. . The release still maintains the beta tag because it has not been widely tested prior to release. It includes the following improvements:
- Provides support for DataSets
- Delivers support for duplex contracts
- Can handle ASMX services, even without a WCF client, which comes from the capability to process Fiddler2 traces
- Automatically filters out NullMessage messages which can appear in service-side message logs
- Verifies that the right kind of message log has been provided
- nitializes out parameters in the stub methods so that generated code will always compile without modification
- No longer locks the assemblies after the wizard has been used
- Provides improved error reporting
At the time of the last release it was said that it would be the last release to support Visual Studio 2008. However, there has not been a need to do this, so this release is
still supported in Visual Studio 2008 and Visual Studio 2010, it will probably also still work with Visual Studio 2005, but this has not been tested.
