Your version of Visual Studio dictates what you need to do Not being able to simply download the WCF Test Client from the web is a good example of this – therefore the work around is I have to create it myself. I am not advocating doing anything illegal or something that will violate your company’s workplace policies, but at the same time some of these restrictions are so suffocating we, as developers, cannot get our jobs done. Downloading files to your phone and moving them over using any method you can think of.Temporarily hosting files on a web server.Even the strongest network security cannot thwart the following efforts at times (depends on how insane your company’s security is): Therefore if you don’t have a machine where this can be done, then you are doomed to download a copy of the WCF test client – hopefully that is an option for you. There is just one ironic caveat here – you absolutely need a machine that has Visual Studio installed in order to actually produce a transportable copy of the WCF test client. The whole point here is to produce a transportable copy of the WCF test client so that you don’t need Visual Studio to be installed where you are trying to perform your WCF test. I just want to document what I did so I can re-reference it later if needed. Therefore I had to recreate a portable WCF test client for myself yesterday following the instructions that are provided on the stack overflow post and msdn forum. I cannot download files from google drive or onedrive. There is a post on StackOverflow that addresses this exact concern: However as time moves on the answers are becoming a little outdated and if you work at an organization like I do where the network security is above average, bordering insane, then you cannot just download anything you want as it is blocked. There are times when you need to use the WCF test client in places where Visual Studio is not installed, namely a production server or a non-developer machine at times. ![]()
