WcfTestClient Change in Visual Studio 2008 SP1

Posted by Dan Rigsby on August 21st, 2008

In the previous version of the WcfTestClient, every call to the server would result in a new instance of the proxy being created.  So, if you wanted to do any testing based on sessions, you had to use another tool.  In SP1, Microsoft has updated the WcfTestClient with a check box named “Start a new proxy” which defines whether or not to create a new proxy client with that call.  The default value is to reuse the same proxy instance.

    You might also be interested in WCFStorm http://www.wcfstorm.com. It’s a way much better tool than WcfTestClient IMHO.
