Testing software on windows 2000/NT
-
Hi I am not sure that this is the place to ask it but if not please tell me and i will ask it in the appropriate forum. I wrote an application using VB.NET using VS 2005. I tested it on windows XP with .NET framework 2.0 and it worked fine. I want to test it on windows 2000/NT and my question is if i have to install it on my/other computer or there is an emulator/software testing enviroment which i can use? tnx -- modified at 6:46 Sunday 12th March, 2006

i dont know if there's an emulator for windows !! but u can install MS virtual machine or any other machine emulator then install whatever OS u want on it and test your software. but to let u know its sooooooo slow!

The forum that you should ask your question is VB/VB.Net forum[^], but don't worry I still answer your question.

In my opinion you should test it on the real machine to see if there is any problem during your testing process. Make sure that your testing deployment machine have dotnet framework 2.0 too.

You'll have to build a machine (real or virtual) with the O/S you want to try it on, then install the .NET Framework 2.0 on it, then install your application you want to test. I would recommend using a Virtual machine product, like Microsoft's Virtual PC, for this if you have the RAM to do it. You can find out more about it and download a 45-day trial version here[^]. The .NET Framework 2.0 cannot be installed on any version of Windows NT. On Windows 2000, 2.0 requires a minimum of Service Pack 4 in order to work.
