Bean Tester

The Bean Tester lets you quickly test and customize pre-existing beans and assemble composite beans. The Bean Tester comes with a palette of beans you can play with straight out-of-the-box.

Launch the Tester from the WebRunner Bean Tools program group. A palette of beans appears in the left panel of the Tester. You can add any of these beans to the working area (in the center of the Tester) by selecting a bean in the palette and then clicking on the location where you want to place the bean. The properties sheet on the right allows you to edit the properties of the currently selected bean.

You can also create composite beans by selecting multiple beans and choosing the Save As Bean item from the Bean menu. You can set up event handling between beans in the composite, and save the assembly as a new bean with its own project and package name.

You can also add your own beans to the Tester bean palettes using the Load Bean item in the Bean menu. The Bean Tester loads beans that are in JAR (Java Archive) format.
