It wasn't used, much to the frustration of the 618 Sqn. pilots. At one point a sortie to attack Tirpitz in Norway was all ready to go, then scrubbed at the last minute. Originally, the idea was to attack Tirpitz at the same time as the dams, so as to maximize surprise.
"A Most Secret Squadron" has some really good information on this. There's also some bouncing bomb video links over on the IL-2 board. One is quite spectacular, as the test weapon veers off course to port - towards the camera!
