Jenkins : MSTestRunner Plugin

Plugin Information

View MSTestRunner on the plugin site for more information.

This plugin allow you to execute test using MSTest command line tool.

Description

This plugin allow you to execute test using MSTest command line tool.

MSTest are test classes for .NET framework which are integrated into Visual Studio. You should use a plugin to process the result files, I recommend using MSTest Jenkins Plugin. You can read my post about how to setup Jenkins with MSTest in my blog.

Configuration

To configure a MSTest installation, go to Manage Jenkins -> Configure System (or Manage Jenkins -> Global Tool Configuration in Jenkins 2.8, possibly earlier) and add a MSTest installation. Name is mandatory. If Path to MSTest is left blank, the default is MSTest.exe.

MSTestRunner can be used as a build step. The screenshot below shows the configuration parameters available where the Test Files and the Result File Name are mandatory. The MSTest Version is not mandatory. If the default is used, the plugin will look for MSTest.exe, so ideally it should be in the path.

For further configuration tips, see each field's inline help.

Version 0.2.1 (09/14/2012)

  • Fix the bug in which the flag /noisolation was not added by default.
  • Add new option in MSTest config (Manage Jenkins -> Configure System -> MSTest) name Omit Noisolation. Checking this option will omit the /noisolation flag from the call to MSTest.

Version 0.2 (09/02/2012)

  • Add parameter for running MSTest with or without isolation (thanks to roicp #1)

Notice
Due to update in version 0.2 the plugin do not add /noisolation flag by default which break MSTest on some systems.

To work around this problem until then either downgrade to 0.1 or add /noisolation flag in Manage Jenkins -> Configure System -> MSTest -> Default Paramters.

You can upgrade to version 0.2.1 which fix the problem.
