Get custom field value using ITestCase interface

Question

Hello,

 

I'm trying to get 3 custom fields values by using ITestCase interface.

2 of the custom values are booleans (True / False) and one is free text field.

The Booleans value I get using

testCase.CustomFields["Known Dev Defect"].Value.ToString()

is the default value ("False") , and for the free text I get empty string , which is incorrect

 

The custom fields XML definition:

 

<FIELD reportable="detail" refname="Microsoft.SSDQS.KnownDefectComments" name="Known Defect Comments" type="String">
<HELPTEXT>Known Defect Comments</HELPTEXT>
</FIELD>
<FIELD reportable="dimension" refname="Microsoft.SSDQS.KnownDevDefect" name="Known Dev Defect" type="String">
<ALLOWEDVALUES>
<LISTITEM value="True" />
<LISTITEM value="False" />
</ALLOWEDVALUES>
<DEFAULT from="value" value="False" />
<HELPTEXT>Is test case has a known dev defect</HELPTEXT>
</FIELD>
<FIELD refname="Microsoft.SSDQS.KnownTestDefect" name="Known Test Defect" type="String">
<ALLOWEDVALUES>
<LISTITEM value="True" />
<LISTITEM value="False" />
</ALLOWEDVALUES>
<DEFAULT from="value" value="False" />
</FIELD>

 

Is there any solution for this problem ?

Thanks, Ayelet

Hi Ayelet,

Thanks for posting the issue here and sorry for the delayed response!

I think this issue is more related with Test Manager, so I am moving this thread to Testing with Visual Studio Test Manager (MTM) for better response.

Hope it helps!
