Hello TestMaker,

  Just a heads up, I don't know if your server is being overwhelmed
  with requests or there is a problem, but I am not able to download
  the Windows TestNode, Linux Installer and Linux TestNode files.  I
  am getting an XML page back listing Access Denied.

<Error>
<Code>AccessDenied</Code>
<Message>Access Denied</Message>

</HostId>
</Error>  

  Similar pages for all 3.  The other Linux and Windows links seem to
  work just fine.

FC> TestMaker 5.1 Changes

FC>      *  TestMaker 5.0 ships with TestGen4Web 0.49 that fails to  
FC> install on Firefox 2.0.0.7 or later. TestMaker now ships with  
FC> TestGen4Web 0.50.2-PTT to be fully compatible with Firefox 2.0.0.7  
FC> and later.
FC>      * TestMaker 5.1 changes the way TestGen4Web scripts are run in  
FC> the TestNode environment. The new script runner uses TestGen4Web's  
FC> htmlunit-interpreter package. This improves TestMaker's ability to  
FC> natively run TestGen4Web recorded unit tests.
FC>      * TestMaker 5.1 offers many minor improvements and bug fixes to  
FC> the results and reporting capabilities. The charts for a load test  
FC> now include a legend of concurrent user (CR) levels. We fixed an  
FC> issue where load tests greater than 12 hours show negative horizontal
FC> axis values in the resource distribution charts. We removed the load  
FC> test summary report from the output panel. We added new options to  
FC> the TestScenario definition for a load test to automatically save all
FC> charts to the results directory and create an HTML-based summary report.
FC>      * We fixed many problems with installing and running TestMaker  
FC> on Mac OS X, including an installation problem that prevented the  
FC> Resource Monitor (PTTMonitor) from running.
FC>      * We updated the documention by correcting many spelling and  
FC> grammer problems and including new sections for QA Testers and IT  
FC> management. Additionally, we added new documentation to show the  
FC> options to log results data directly to a Relational Database  
FC> Management System (RDBMS)and added documentation to show how to set  
FC> TestMaker and TestNode memory settings.
FC>      * We did an overhaul of the TestMaker classpath and supporting  
FC> Java Archive Resource (JAR) files.
FC>      * TestMaker runs on Windows XP, Windows 2003 Server, and Windows
FC> Vista. TestMaker 5.1 and later is no longer compatible with the old  
FC> Windows 2000 and NT operating environments because of a bug in  
FC> Windows that limits the size of a classpath.
FC>      * TestMaker 5.0 shipped with a typo in the  
FC> <delayBetweenStartingUseCases> element in a TestScenario. The element
FC> was incorrectly named<delayBetweenStartingUseCasses> (notice the  
FC> extra 's'.) TestMaker 5.1 accepts the correct and incorrect versions.
FC>      * Added the File menu -> Open Scenario command to open  
FC> TestScenarios.
FC>      * Added new capability to TestScenarios to control timeout  
FC> values for usecases (unit tests) that take too long to operate.
FC>      * Added an option for the transaction distribution charts to use
FC> a moving data average instead of inserting every data point.

FC> A complete list of changes and their associated bug reports is found at:
