Silk Test Classic can easily drive multiple different applications simultaneously. Thus you can bring a server’s database to a known state at the same time you are bringing multiple instances of the client application to their base state window. Likewise, you can drive a server database with several different client applications at the same time.
Multi-machine testing requires that you map both the name of an application and all application states for that application to the machine on which it will be tested. This makes it possible for you to direct test operations to the right machines, and it enables Silk Test Classic to automatically set the machines to the proper application state before a test is run, and to clean up after a test has failed.
