EOL: SentryOne Test reached its end of life date on June 15, 2022. See the Solarwinds End of Life Policy for more information.
Asset elements are designed to be reusable pieces throughout test development. Many different items may require the same connection or query, but those elements achieve different goals. Instead of needing to retype a connection string every time, you can store that connection string in a connection asset. Now every time that you need the connection, you can select it from a list of available assets.
Assets can be defined at the project, group, or test level. Assets within each of those locations may only be used by elements within that location. For example, an asset defined at the test level can only be used by that test, whereas an asset defined at the project level can be used anywhere within that project.
The following assets are available in SentryOne Test Visual Studio Extension.
