Hi, point 3 was wrong. User variable WEBTEST_HOME makes for this purpose no sense. What you need here is to add c:\apps\webTest\bin to your PATH user variable.
Once this is done, point 4 should work. Point (5) won't work as there is no installTest file in bin dir. We should update the documentation to reflect current "best practice". Try following in c:\apps: webtest -f webtest\webtest.xml wt.createProject Marc.
