Appearance of the Microsoft.NET including the ASP.NET gives an incredible tool into the hand of developers building web applications. Using ASP.NET developers could rather concentrate on implementing more functionality than solving time-consuming tasks.

ASP.NET – as its ancestor ASP – is a server-side web technology that can be used to generate dynamically changing HTML pages that might be created from a database. Advantages of ASP.NET are (among a lot of others for and against ASP), on the one hand it can be programmed using real languages like C#, and on the other hand building user interfaces is much more easier than ever (WebForms).

In our article we introduce a test supporting system implemented as ASP.NET server-side web pages that can be used to help the test period of intranet web applications. The web application is also built using ASP.NET so choosing this technology and integrate the two products (the software and the test supporting system) are straightforward. The other important part of our study is to point out the advantages and disadvantages of ASP.NET and to prove its applicability in such cases.
