Overview

Within the web folder you will find the file "web.config" - this is a XML file containing a number of settings which configure settings for the Enterprise Tester application, including what type of database to connect to and its connection string details.

...

Tip

We provide example connection strings for each database, but each database supports a number of different connection options - we recommend consulting the http://connectionstrings.com/ website for listings of the different connection strings you can try.

SQL Server

By default the web.config file comes with the settings necessary to connect to Sql Server or Sql Server Express - all you need to do is provide a connection string.

Code Block
<add name="Default" connectionString="Server=Server123;Database=EnterpriseTester;User ID=bob;Password=pass123;Trusted_Connection=False;" />
