XSLT Timer

Resource Page Description
This is a small application that can be used to do simple timings on XSLT transformations.



How to use XSLT Timer
You can download the binary release from here and execute it from anywhere - there is no setup step to be performed. If you want to tweak anything, the sources are also available here.

The main portion of the window is taken by three tabs.
- Stylesheet. Here you can enter the XSLT for the transformation.
- Document. Here you can enter the source document to be transformed.
- Results. Here you will see the results of a successful transformation.

There are two buttons on the right-hand side.
- Help. Shows some simple help text.
- Run. Runs the transformation and provides basic timing information. Alt+R is the shortcut you'll get used to using.

Finally, note that you can drop files or text into the stylesheet or document controls to populate their content.

While this tool is handy for quick tests and comparisons, if you're serious about XSLT development you'll probably want something more mature, such as the tools that come with Microsoft Visual Studio. You can find more resources at http://blogs.msdn.com/marcelolr/pages/xslt-resources.aspx
