Auto-generate Test Cases (and have specification documentation to boot!)

Suppose you could create specification documentation that could generate test cases automatically. Suppose that doing this would reduce your testing effort by roughly 40%. Suppose that you could also see requirements coverage.

What would you pay for this tool? How about $0?

Spec Explorer has been available for several years and is available for both Visual Studio 2010 and 2008. There is also an earlier stand-alone version that works well, though it lacks some of the integration features and newly-developed features.

Check it out, give it a try and see if it doesn't make your life easier.
