Test Analytics in Azure Pipelines is now at your fingertips
October 25, 2018Oct 25, 201810/25/18Keeping the pipeline healthy and making it effective is KEY to your DevOps ongoing journey. Some time back we introduced Analytics in Azure Pipeline with Top failing tests report to help you do just that.
New Navigation for Visual Studio Team Services
June 19, 2018Jun 19, 201806/19/18I’m excited to share the new navigation we’re working on for Visual Studio Team Services (VSTS) to modernize the user experience and give you more flexibility. As Lori mentioned in her blog post, our goal to create an integrated suite that also gives the flexibly to pick and choose the services that work best for you.
DevOps for IoT with Win10 IoT Core, UWP, and VSTS
March 7, 2018Mar 7, 201803/7/18We often get asked how to do CI/CD for IoT apps using Win10 IoT Core. If you’ve been considering or using Win10 IoT Core, then read on.
The Visual Studio Test Platform that ships with Visual Studio 15.6 RTW now supports Testing on Win10 IoT Core.
MSTest V2: in-assembly parallel test execution
January 30, 2018Jan 30, 201801/30/18Introduction
MSTest V2 v1.3.0 Beta2 now supports in-assembly parallel execution of tests – the top most requested/commented issue on the testfx repo.
The feature can dramatically reduce the total time taken to execute a suite of tests.
How to perform Lab management operations in Build and Release.
September 4, 2017Sep 4, 201709/4/17As you are already aware, we announced the plan for deprecating XAML builds sometime back.
TFS 2018 RC1 is now available and with that XAML builds are no longer supported. Consequently, Lab Management and automated testing capabilities in Microsoft Test Manager (MTM) are no longer supported starting from TFS 2018 RC1.
Upgrade to MSTest V2!
September 1, 2017Sep 1, 201709/1/17MSTest V2 has crossed 1 Million downloads. Congratulations! Hats off to the community! MSTest V2 is seeing robust usage. We ourselves use it heavily. If you are still using an earlier version of the MSTest framework,
Visual Studio Test Platform – upcoming changes to data collectors
August 24, 2017Aug 24, 201708/24/17Having executed a test – at a minimum – we want to know the outcome. But beyond that, we may want to know more. Data collectors and loggers are the key extension mechanisms intended to provide this and other such details for rich reporting.
The TestContainer Capability
August 18, 2017Aug 18, 201708/18/17Updating off pre-RTM bits once RTM ships ought to be routine. But if you have not already done so in the case of the .NET Core based Test projects, let me give you a reason to do so.
vstest delegates discovery and execution of tests to test-framework-specific adapters.
Accelerated Continuous Testing with Test Impact Analysis – Part 4
August 4, 2017Aug 4, 201708/4/17Essential to TIA’s test selection is the map of dynamic dependencies between test methods and source files of code exercised during their execution. TIA needs dependencies mapped in this form:
1 2 3 4 5 6 | <span style="font-size: 10pt"> TestMethod1 dependency1 dependency2 TestMethod2 dependency1 dependency3</span> |
TIA can generate such a dependencies-map for managed code execution.
