SilkTest Question 41: What is the latest version of Silktest?

In preparation for interviewing, I like to review the resume of potential QA engineer candidate to verify time line of using correct version of SilkTest tool and if I see something like "Automated regression testing of new builds utilizing Segue SilkTest" dated between 2000-2002 I would definitely ask about version of automated test tool you were using back then. So I would recommend updating as soon as possible your resume with published below short version of Silktest releases.
