Silk 4J Basics and creating Data driven framework

 Hi,

I am doing POC with Silk 4J for my project. I have couple of questions,

1. Which is the best version of Eclipse for Silk 4J. I am using eclipse Juno -Java EE along with JDK 1.8. Is that ok?

2. I was trying to achieve data driven frame work, what is the best way to achieve that. I am trying with apache POI to connect with Excel. Is there any other way? If you have any samples please share.

Thanks,

Alice
