Legacy Update: Get back online, activate, and install updates on your legacy Windows PC

The IE WebDriver Tool enables developers to create automated tests that simulate users interacting with webpages and report back results in Internet Explorer 11. It can also manage testing across multiple windows, tabs, and webpages in a single session.

• The IE WebDriver Tool implements many of the high priority features from the W3C spec to allow developers to open a session, automate basic functionality against the pages, and return the results of the tests. The IE WebDriver Tool differs from JavaScript unit tests because it has additional access to functionality and information in the browser, and it can more accurately simulate user events or OS-level events.
