Firewall is blocking etsviewer.jar from downloading
If your firewall is not letting you download etsviewer.jar, here is an easy way to get it:
1. Download etsviewer.txt file and save it as etsviewer.txt on your machine. This text file is produced by base 64 encoding the etsviewer.jar file. If it opens up in the browser, do a right click on the text and select "Save As".
2. Run the following Java code to convert the text file into a jar file:
1. Download etsviewer.txt file and save it as etsviewer.txt on your machine. This text file is produced by base 64 encoding the etsviewer.jar file. If it opens up in the browser, do a right click on the text and select "Save As".
2. Run the following Java code to convert the text file into a jar file:
import java.io.*;
import java.nio.file.*;
public class ETSViewerTxtToJar {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
byte[] data = Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get("etsviewer.txt"));
data = java.util.Base64.getDecoder().decode(data);
Files.write(Paths.get("etsviewer.jar"), data, new OpenOption[]{StandardOpenOption.CREATE, StandardOpenOption.TRUNCATE_EXISTING});
}
}
The above code simply decodes the base 64 encoded text file and saves it as a jar file. You can copy the above code into a java file (or download it ETSViewerTxtToJar.java), compile it, and run it from the same directory where you saved the etsviewer.txt file.
You can simply zip up this folder to back up your test history. Unzit it and set the unzipped folder as your work folder through ETS Viewer, if you ever need to see it again.
