Testing is a pretty important part of development, because you don’t want your product to reach the public with a lot of issues. Depending on the case, you might require to work with locked files, or multiple large ones. In this regard, FileTool wants to save you the effort of looking for specific files by giving you the liberty to create them.

A cool advantage here is that there’s no setup involved to make it work, so you can easily see what it’s all about from the moment it reaches your computer. More than that, you have the liberty to carry it on a thumb drive in case it’s required on other computers. Don’t worry, registry entries are not modified in the process, so stability is not put at risk.

The application can handle a couple of things, namely to lock files, and to create dummy files and folders. Both functions are found in a well-organized window, each with dedicated sections and sets of options. There are also example patterns to help you define advanced parameters for generating files.

When it comes to locking files, the operation narrows down to simply dropping them over the dedicated space. Unlocking is easily done by having them removed from the list. You can choose to lock share potions for delete, read, and write attributes.

The counterpart requires a little more effort. A destination needs to be specified using the browse dialog. You can choose to create multiple files at a time, recursively. Names can either be left with the default pattern, or changed, with examples to help you out. Size is also mandatory, and an additional option is found to fill across sectors.

Bottom line is that testing requires some resources apart from the program in question, and FileTool is a reliable tool which helps you create your own types of resources. It can be used on the go, while the set of features is wrapped around a clean, intuitive design.
