Abstract
Let's explore a way to automate testing of Silverlight applications using Selenium, an open-source web site testing framework. We'll look into Silverlight's HTML bridge, the javascript testing syntax and some patterns that will allow us to write tests against Silverlight. We'll also look at some hardships of Silverlight testing such as asynchronous calls and code security. I'll show some work-arounds that can allow us to write successful tests against even the most complex Silverlight application.
