TPS development using the Microsoft .NET Framework

Abstract

Managed or .NET languages are widely used in system software development but are often overlooked for TPS development. This paper looks at using managed languages and the .NET Framework for TPS development. In addition to describing the extensive library support for math, file I/O and string manipulation built into the framework and the powerful application development and debugging support in Visual Studio, the paper also explores how one would define and combine test specific constructs.
