I need a Continuous integration tool that will support both .Net Unit tests and Javascript unit tests and perform the builds.It looks like my main options are CruiseControl.NET using JUnit and NUnit or Team City and JS Test Driver.
Are there any other options and which ones have you used or had good or bad experiences with.
In my project we use UnitTests (MsTest). We run them manually and in the build script.But for some environments where we deploy manually.We are in the need of having some smoke tests. At the moment I made this smoke tests "manually" (Login, create an user, create a licence, create a product, etc). I know I can run unit tests from command line or from visual studio but...Do you know if is possible to run these mstests (or probably a small subset) from an .aspx page and show the results?EDITED: wondering if mstests or something is able to run the tests and have something visual to show in an .aspx page similar to a list of tests passed and tests failed...I am thinking on running only a small subset of tests (5-6)
View 1 Repliesi am using CruiseControl.Net for my continous integration process. using ccnet i build and publish my asp.net application into a server in Release mode. but i am not able to change debug="true" to debug="false" in my Web.Config during publishing. what can i do?
View 2 RepliesI have been working in isolation for a very long time, and over the past few monts a new CTO introduced me to Ant and CI (however in Java, with him doing the dirty work)..just enough to make me see the benifits. Now I'm back to .Net (left off at 1.1, started again after a few years in PHP) and since I got the hang of asp.net 3.5 (mvc) I'd like to expand my knowledge and tools a bit.
Found a copy of "Expert .NET Delivery Using NAnt and CruiseControl.NET" which sounds like exactly what I'd like to study to know how to create my own automated builds and Continuous Integration, but then I realized this book was written in the .net 1.1 days (yes yes, I know a lot will still apply..I just like to be on the bleeding edge of things) Can anyone make some recomendations, give some tips, advice (and even critic) on this train of thought?
I have written some database integration tests in the format of MS unit test. If I run each test, it runs fine. If I run 2 integration tests, it runs fine. However, if I runs 3 or more test at the same time, one test will show "In Progress", and other shows "Pending", basically, it does not make any progress at all, stays there forever. I turned on SQL Server Profiler, it does not show the test hit the database at all.
Here are some examples of my method:

I have a simple page with a Grid that I'm binding a collection of objects to. I also have some simple functionality on the grid to edit and save rows. I would like to write unit tests for this page, but it's not really making sense to me.For example:
Private Sub LoadGrid()
'Populate Collection
grid.datasource = MyCollection
grid.databind()
end sub
I guess a Sub really doesn't need a unit test, but what if this were a function that returned true when the grid had been loaded. How do you write a unit test for this? What other test should be done on a simple web page like this?

View 1 RepliesI need to fake HttpContext.Current.Application table to access it from my unit tests.I need to store my data somewhere. I thought that I can just pass instance of NameValueCollectionBase but as I descover this base type has no indexer so it's too complicated to use. So what about faking this part of HttpContext? Is it possible? How can I make it? Will be NUnit.
View 2 RepliesI'm developing a website in asp.net webforms with 3 layers; UI, BLL and DAL.The website is already developed, but i like have more control about the unit tests of each form Pass specific values at specific inputs for i see, if application survives or not.
I already study about NUnit but in webforms in UI layer how can apply these tests?What i wnat is get some way to test UI (validations) without have to access to the BLL as i was an user.

As stated in http://forums.asp.net/t/1535916.aspx the unit tests are missing from the ASP.NET MVC 2 RTM source code, but are available on CodePlex at
http://aspnet.codeplex.com/releases/view/41742).
After installing ASP.NET MVC2 RTM on Visual Web Developer 2008 Express, apparently unit tests are not enabled for VWD - when I create a new MVC2 project I don't get the "Create Unit Test Project" dialog box where I can say"Yes, create a unit test project".(I thought I was presented with that dialog box in earlier versions of either MVC2 RC or MVC1, but maybe not...)
Given the source code on codeplex, is it possible to use that to enable unit tests for MVC2 for VWD Express? If so, are the steps one have to take detailed somewhere?
I want to write a unit test which tests the function of a class called UploadedFile. The problem I face is this class' static constructor uses HttpContext.Current property and because I am running my unit test from a class library I do not have an HttpContext at the testing time.
Look at my static constructor:
static UploadedFile()
{
if (HttpContext.Current == null)[code]....
What should I do in my testing environment so that HttpContext.Current won't be null and I can successfully set this:
HttpServerUtility server = HttpContext.Current.Server;

View 1 RepliesFo unit testing ASP.NET controls I need a stubbed Page.
I can create an ASP.NET Page object in my unit tests by subclassing System.Web.UI.Page.However, I cannot find a way to set Page.Form. Adding a form with attribute (runat,server)does not work. Overloading the form in my Subclass does not give the required functionality.
Context:I try to unit test some homemade ASP.NET controls. These control require Page and Page.Form not to be null.
I have a unit test that reads from an .xml file and it works fine on my local machine.However, in TFS when I create a new build it gives the following exception:
Failed GetArticleByIdTestOptimal Test method Test.ArticleSystemTest.GetArticleByIdTestOptimal threw exception: System.Xml.XmlException: ImportFromFile filePath=[.Articles1to5.xml]. ---> System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'c:uildareaTestResults fservice
2010-10-19 11_52_19_Any CPU_ReleaseOutArticles1to5.xml'..
Is there some reason why a unit test could pass locally but not in TFS? I've verified that the file is on the build server.

Basically, it provides some excellent guidance on how to integrate your Javascript tests into Visual Studio. I followed the steps in the article and successfully managed to test Javascript methods using Visual Studio tests.
I am unable however to unit test JQuery methods (I get errors such as "window" undefined). I was wondering if anyone has successfully managed to test jQuery methods on the server using the above link?

When it comes to integrating your site with facebook, is it recommended to save all the user's info from Facebook to your DB, or is it recommended to query in real time all the info you need based on the user's id?
For example the avatar sizes are different on my site than on my facebook, so I may have no choice but to download the fb avatar, but for other things like name, gender, hometown, I was wondering if I need to save that data. Also, if I decide to change extended permissions at a later time, is that going to be an easy task?
I'm using VSTS 2K8 and I've set up a Unit Test Project. In it, I have a test class with a method that does a simple assertion. I'm using an Excel 2007 spreadsheet as my data source.
My test method looks like this:
[Code]....
As indicated in the method decoration attributes, my Excel spreadsheet is on my local C:/ Drive. In it, the sheet where all of my data is located is named "Sheet1".I've copied the Excel spreadsheet into my project and I've set its Build Action = "Content" and I've set its Copy to Output Directory = "Copy if Newer".
When trying to run this simple unit test, I receive the following error:
The unit test adapter failed to connect to the data source or to read the data. For more information on troubleshooting this error, see "Troubleshooting Data-Driven Unit Tests" (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=62412) in the MSDN Library. Error details: ERROR [42S02] [Microsoft][ODBC Excel Driver] The Microsoft Office Access database engine could not find the object 'Sheet1'. Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly.
I've verified that the sheet name is spelled correctly (i.e. Sheet1) and I've verified that my data sources are set correctly.Web searches haven't turned up much at all.

I have a website in C#/ASP.NET that is currently in development. When we are in production, I would like to do releases frequently over the course of the day, as we fix bugs and add features (like this: [URL].
