About this Zero-byte .SLN file

What you get

empty.sln is 0 bytes. 1kb.sln is 1,024 bytes of filler text. Both use the Visual Studio Solution File name.

How to use it in QA

Attach either file where your product asks for a .SLN file. Use the empty file for a zero-length check, and the 1 KB file for a small non-empty upload. The download names stay empty.sln and 1kb.sln.

Will an app open them?

Is the download safe?

Yes. Neither file has an executable payload.
