    WaitForVisible Steps That Don't Wait

    Occasionally we get complaints that the WaitForVisible steps in Test Studio don't work correctly. Our response is "It's not our fault!"   Here's what I mean: the Visibility check relies on the Computed Style of the element as seen through the lens of the browser. Specifically we look at the Display property. Here's a video of me using the Google Developer tool to determine the visibility property of an HTML element. Display:none means element is not visible.

    Telerik Reporting to drop .NET2.x, .NET3.0, VS2005 and VS2008 support in Q2 2013

    Yes, it is about time, and you, our users, have confirmed it in the several polls we ran on the topic.

This way the small percentage of our users still using .NET2 and .NET3.0 have several months to migrate their projects to newer .NET versions (.NET 3.5 SP1, .NET4.x). Alternatively, these projects can continue to run against .NET2 or .NET3.0, but they will not be able to use newer versions of Telerik Reporting. Why the change?
