Example Configurations
Jump-start your test configuration with the examples installed with dsTest. You will find at least one example for every test application, as well as examples that illustrate advanced testing features, on your dsTest platform in /usr/local/devsol/dsTest/examples/. If you use dsClient Desktop, it will automatically download these examples into a read-only library in your XML Library.
