Generating Test Containers
Last updated
Last updated
If you have already developed your test case 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 test case project
Test Case 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 test case 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\TC001_Rev1\bin\Debug\PortalUpload\TC001_Rev1_20190506_135523.testcontainer
The test container file name is always named according to the following schema
TCidentifier_TCrevision_GenerationDate_GenerationTime.testcontainer
Therefore the following test case container TC001_Rev1_20190506_135523.testcontainer can be decoded as follows:
TC Identifier: 001
Revision: 1
Generation Date: 2019-05-06
Generation Time: 13:55:23
The next chapter (Publishing Test Cases) explains how to make the testcontainer available in the Portal.
