Code access security is a key feature of the Microsoft .NET Framework, in which the administrators of each machine are able, through configuration settings, to decide exactly what types of operations an assembly can perform. From deciding whether to permit unmanaged code to securing access to individual registry entries, there are endless possible permutations - any of which, when applied to an assembly, might prevent it from running.

CAS/Tester (Automated Code Access Security Testing) was developed to address the issue of security constraints as software is deployed through the Internet, Intranets and other distribution channels.

As more and more Microsoft .NET code is deployed in a secure manner, through distribution channels, it will become increasingly important for developers to test their code under a variety of security constraints.

CAS/Tester provides several options for testing from a simple command line utility to a fixed set of dozens of permissions determined by the developer. The software product was designed in such a way that developers can use the software to run tests within minutes of installing the package.
