A TDI server is automatically started when we start the CE, which is used to test and run AssemblyLines. When the object of the test runs finishes, this server does not terminate but stays around, waiting for the next test run.
In the Servers View we can manage server definitions. Servers defined here can be local servers or remote servers and is used by the various TDI projects we create. Servers that have an installation path defined are considered local servers that can be launched by the CE.
One server is automatically defined and is named Default. This server is the default server used by new TDI projects. The default server is created with values from the global.properties file using the solution directory as defined by the user (for example from the TDI_SOLDIR variable, which in turn is setup by the Installer).
