MSTest Results

Question

Hi folks,
I'm integrating unit tests into a build using TFSPreview. All works fine and failure show up as expected. Trouble is that through the Internet portal I cannot see the test results in terms of the Error Messages attached to the failing tests.

Security is all set up fine.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

From Web portal, you can only get info on how many test failed or passed. But if you need to get more information on the error then you have to user VS Client which supports to display the test result file or from portal, you can look at the "log" tab which has details on all the test passed or failed. That might give you what you are looking for.

Thanks for the reply. Disappointing. The first question a manager or lead looking at the portal output will ask is why did it fail to get an immediate feel for the possible causes of an exception.

I completely agree that this will be good feature. Please feel free to add a feature request here http://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/121579-visual-studio
