Answer 1

Hi Katta,

 

Thanks for your post.

 

If you want to run Code UI Test as part of Build Process, you have to install any test SKU on  the Build agent also configure the build agent as Interactive process. Please refer to this similar post: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/vsautotest/thread/ef0e4db1-66c7-4aa7-ab86-a123d5f94e61.

Answer 8

Hi John,

 

As your anwer do i need to install vs 2010 premium on build server machine. bcoz i cant configure build agent and controllers on my machine as i am not having any admin rights on TFS which means i cannot able to go to Team foundation admin console page. On my machine i m having Vs2010 premium and test manager.  so on admin sys do we need to have test manager or is it okey to use vs 2010 premium only?

 

Thanks ,

katta

Answer 9

Hi Katta,

 

Thanks for  your reply.

 

As far as I know, Team Build invoke test edition to process test, and the test edition included in VS. If you only want to build your test using Team Build on build machine, you only need to install your VS 2010 premium(include Test Edition) on build machine.  

 

There have a nice chart of the features in the different SKU’s at: http://www.ewaldhofman.nl/post/2009/10/19/VS-TFS-2010-Beta-2-has-arrived.aspx.

 

For Test Manager issue, I suggest you to post it at http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vsmantest/threads for quicker and better response, where MTM experts live in.

I want to confirm with you that: your Code UI test can run completely using VS 2010 on the build machine? No any error?

If you need any more information let me know . Thanks for your patience. I really appreciate it.

Katta

Answer 17

Hi John,

 

Have you find any solution  for this issue?

Answer 18

Hi Katta,

 

Thanks for your reply.

 

I tried to reproduce your scenario on my machine, but I didn’t occur that issue.

 

You said that your Code UI test can run using VS 2010 completely. So I think it shouldn’t occur the CodeUITest not registered issue.

 

How did you run CodeUITest using VS 2010 on Build machine? In Test View windows, right-click your CodeUITest and select Run Selection to execute it and can execute successfully?     

 

And make sure the steps in that Code UI Test in a Team Build blog.

i have not checked that. i did only on machine. we have single licence for test professional which is installed on my machine. so i m the only person can run builds with coded ui.

Answer 22

Hi Katta,

 

Thanks for your reply.

 

This issue requires more troubleshooting and I can’t reproduce this scenario on my machine. If it is urgent issue, I suggest you to contact a Professional Support Service at http://support.microsoft.com/ to gain more support on this case.

Answer 24

Hi John,

 

FOr coded ui tests do i need to associate any test cases? Because i have added coded ui tests which i recorder from Vs2010,not from MTM.

 

Regards,

katta

Answer 25

Hi Katta,

 

If you want to associate an exist Code UI Test to Test Case, you need to modify the Test Case’s action step in Test Manager(MTM).

Answer 26

Hi John,

 

Thanks for your reply. What my question is to run coded ui tests in the build definition do i need to associate them with any test cases. Because i recorded all coded ui tests in Vs 2010 and added them build definition. SO is this the reason i m getting errors?

 

 

Thanks,

Katta

Answer 27

Hi Katta,

don't know whether u solved it yet or not, I do run into  similar issue that  "Team BVT fail to init for case with Coded-UI-test"

Anyway let me share how I resolved it

1. Compose a Test Setting to Roles -> Test Execution Method -> Remote Execution
   and supply the only controller I have ( not available until I unregistered it  from Team Project Collection under TFS Test Controller 2010 configuration tools )
2. Edit Build Definition to use that New Test Settings file
3. (assuming your Test Agent are configured to run under interactive user mode

Hope this help 

Saxon.
