• bevis61 Regarding MSBuild

  Is there a way in build script to run unit tests only in debug mode Thats ok. Thank you for the posting. My issue got solved somehow.thank you for the postings. Dinesh - perhaps you are referring to the "Debug tests" option that you can see in the IDE where you can step through your tests while they execute. Do you want to run tests in this debug mode while doing automatic build through Team Build If yes, I don't think this is possible since this option is only available if you run tests from the IDE, not through a service as is the case with Team Build. (( Moved to Team Build forum )) Dinesh, Are you still looking for help with this issue -Matt Hi Luis I am referring to Team Build wit ...Show All

• Boris Zakharin App Server install: User account problem

  I am trying to install TFS in dual server mode and I've had no end of problems! We have set up the TFS service accounts: SVC_TFS and SVC_TFS_REPORT We have used these accounts successfully on a number of test machines, but as soon as we tried to put it on our production machine, we have had no end of problems: Database server install would not work... seemingly could not connect to the SQL Server 2005 database. This is a default instance as per the installation pre-requisites. However, we did get it working by restoring from one of the previous instances. Now, during the app server installation, when we enter the credentials for the service accounts we get the following error message: The account name is not valid or does n ...Show All

• Cla82 How to generate code in c# for a webtest

  Hi, I have recorded a webtest in VSTS and generated code for it. Unfortunately, it generated code in VB but I am only familiar with c#. Is there any setting that I need to change to generate code in c#. Thanks. Hello vasudupe, You need to create a VB test project first. To create a VB test project, there are two ways: you could either set your default test project type as Visual Basic test project (open menu Tools -> Options, select Test Tools -> Test Project) or create a VB test project explicitly when you add/create a new project in (Add) New Project dialog. Select Test node under Visual Basic node inside the Project types pane. After the VB test project is created, the co ...Show All

• SneakerXZ Can any one give a way

  Hi all I need help to read a word document.The problem is not to use a COM component or third party software. Can any one provide a solution for this regards keshav well without using the interop approach I don't see how you can read a word document since its in a special format for word to understand really. You can read/write to RTF files using the RichTextBox control but not word documents. Another way would be to launch that word document as a process so it launches it in MS Word: System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("path\\myfile.doc"); With the advent of Office 2007 I think this will become easier. Until then you're probably stuck with interoping with COM. ...Show All

• Walter Luszczyk Error spawning 'cmd.exe'

    When I compiled the project, there was an error,----Error spawning 'cmd.exe'.   Why I'm getting this same problem too. Because I have the Professional version of VS 2005, maybe this is not the right forum to post, but my problem is that I can't find the following: Projects and Solutions -> VC++ Directories page This option is only in the express version Projects and Solutions are there, but not the directories area. Is there somewhere else that I can enter this data Or is there another solution to getting past this error -- It seems to happen at the end of the build when it tries to embed the manifest information.

• TopperDEL Unit Tests and Integration Tests - Different Projects?

  I'm wondering if there are any general preferences towards seperate projects for unit tests and integration tests. Right now they are mixed in the same project but there is no easy distinction between a unit test and a integration test. One suggestion I have for the future is a ctro overload for TestClass() attribute that allows you to type the test type, which you can then filter/sort on in the Test View window. Currently, both integration tests and unit tests appears as unit tests, and I can't find a easy way to filter/group the different types. Why am I asking this question Unit tests should be run all the time during development and should be lightning quick, integration tests should be run once in a while and before check ...Show All

  Hello, Is it still possible to download a version of FxCop which works with the .net 1.1 runtime I know that version 1.35 is able to analyze assemblies compiled against all versions of the .NET Runtime however we do not have/want to install .net 2.0 which version 1.35 requires to run, onto our build machine.

• Chris Marts Compuware & VSTS

  Please can someone confirm the benefits of haing the Compuware Test partner tool as well as the VSTS test suite having scanned through the posts here all I can find is that VSTS does not support UI very well.
