Generating Test Containers
If you have already developed your installer you have to make it available to the TestResults.io portal. The portal expects a .testcontainer file created out of your test case. The container consists of:
- Images associated with your installer project
- Installers DLLs (the code you have written in Visual Studio)
To generate such a container simply :
- Open the Visual Studio Solution Explorer
- Right click on the Test Case Project
- Select the TestResults.io context menu
- Select the Generate installer test container option
A successful generation of the test container will be also indicated in the Visual Studio output section as follows:
Container was successfully created. C:\Projects\MyFirstTrioSolution\MyFirstSoftware_V1_0_Installer\bin\Debug\PortalUpload\MyFirstSoftware_V1_0_Installer_20190506_162758.testcontainerThe test container file name is always named according to the following schema
SWName_SWrevision_Installer_GenerationDate_GenerationTime.testcontainerTherefore the following installer container
MyFirstSoftware_V1_0_Installer_20190506_162758.testcontainer can be decoded as follows:- SW Name for which the installer is created: MyFirstSoftware
- SW Version: 1.0
- Generation Date: 2019-05-06
- Generation Time: 16:27:58
The next chapter (Publishing Installers) explains how to make the testcontainer available in the Portal.
