Properties can be
verified as a set
To make your testing easier, properties are organized into sets.
Predefined sets Here are the predefined property sets:
The property sets listed above are the general built-in property sets.
If you have enabled an extension to provide enhanced support for testing an
application built with a particular development environment, there might be
additional property sets. For more information, see the online Help for the
extension.
If you are testing a Web application, there are additional property sets. For
more information, see Testing Web Applications with SilkTest.
Configuring property sets You can configure property sets to suit your
needs, even combining frequently used property sets into a new larger
property set. For more information, see "Configuring your own property sets"
on page 121.
