• Sir CodesAlot Running Unit Tests with Team Build

  All I want to do is run all the tests in all assemblies, within the context of Team Build. I don't want to have to create a Test List and hope that every developer remembers to add their tests to that list. Someone please tell me that this is a supported (or at least possible) scenario. That's a real pain. I can't rely on my developers to always put their new tests into a list - hell, I can't rely ...Show All

• Ebbe Source control for non-VS2005 files

  We consider to use VSTS for work item tracking and source control. We have projects in C++, C# and VB6 (VB6 code will NOT be migrated to VB.NET). If we wanted to put the VB6 code under source control in VSTS (instead of Visual Source Safe), what would be the best way to do it Thanks, Adrian Unfortunately, that's correct.  You can use SCE in TFC, but there are quite a number of known problems there (hence the warning in the readme). ...Show All

• Binju Paul AD -> SD: Override settings

  Today I am confronted with the following questions.. 1. If application diagram component's overridable settings are changed, system diagram also gets updated. In SD, under what circumstances will I need to override settings (just to make my deployment validation successful ) 2.

• Trifection Small Team ISV / Micro-Isv

  While the templates out there seem very nice, they don't seem to be a good fit for a small/micro-isv senerio. They seem better suited for larger IT teams. One example are "rolls", they all list more rolls than employees in our company. :) With this in mind I think it best to just build my own template from the ground up. But before I go off an do this, I was wondering if anyone else has already build a workable template (or maybe is ...Show All

• Jason Franks Load tests not getting dependent files

  I have some working coded web tests. However, when I use them in a load test, almost nothing happens. The first POST is passed and then the load test does not GET the dependent files (with the exception of the style sheet according to the server log). After this, nothing. The load test does not attempt another POST. In fact, the load test monitor does not even report that any tests are under way. It only reports user(s) and request(s). ...Show All

• Steven Leong Avoiding Redirects in a Webtest

  Hi, I noticed this happening in some of my webtests and I was wondering if someone else has seen this too. Sometimes when I run a webtest with only one request in it, I see a few other requests with HTTP statuses like "Redirect" or "301 Moved Permanently". I am not sure why exactly this happens but I'm guessing that it has to do with my proxy settings or maybe some tracking tool running on the server. What I'm interested i ...Show All
