Automated Test Run Error: There is no test with specified id {GUID}

-
Those who use Microsoft Test Manager to run their automation, find this error common and some time irritating. As the error states, it unable to find specific test case in associated build to test plan. There may be other reason for this such as -

1. Change in class name spaces but didn't updated automation association
2. Build assigned to test plan is not correct or old one
3. Missing test assemblies in assigned build

Resolution:

1. Check if your test assemblies are there in the build drop folder
2. Remove the automation association and re-associate automation method reference.
3. Get the test case ID and make sure it is part of test suite in test plan.
4. Check if associated automated test name is correct. Error states that you are running your test against build which doesn't have associated test in it.
5. Queue new build and once succeeded - assign it to your test plan and make sure this build has all tests which are associated with your automation. 

Thanks,

How To: Bulk upload Test Case results to Microsoft Test Manager

-
Problem Definition: Most TFS or Microsoft Test Manager users find it difficult to update test execution result to MTM. Assume that you are done with 100+ test case execution manually and now you want to upload results (Pass/Fail/Block) for all those test cases and also link bugs, test cases to result as needed. Doing this manually is very time consuming. At this time there is no way to support this ask in MTM versions but yes, we can achieve this by writing our own code using TFS SDK APIs. Resolution: I came along with this issue some time back and created a tool using TFS APIs which upload results to MTM very smoothly. Here is how my tool works:   1. Run tool exe  2. Connect to team foundation server you want to  3.  Select test plan -> Test Suite  4. Click Get Test Case button  5. This will create excel with test cases from selected test suite.  6. There is filter if you want to upload results specifically for manual or automated or all test cases  7.  Open created excel and

TFS API: Get Work Item History Revisions for parituclar Field

Hello, I observed many of us struggling to view history for any work item. History is visible but it is hard to visualize changes made like who made changes, to which field and when etc. For this matter, one has to scroll through entire history tab and find it tedious job. I was thinking what if we could view work item history for selected field with other details like who changed it and when. Here is solution - I have created a tool which show work item history for selected field. Also shows how may times selected field changed. You can view history by selecting single work item and also export entire work item query history to excel. I find this tool useful so thought of sharing with others. How it works - 1. Run EXE 2. Prompt you select/add team project server details 3. Populates your My Queries to Treeview 4. Double Click query from tree and it will show work items in right grid 5. Select Work item field from top drop down for which you want to see history 6. Doubl

We can add attachment to test case result using TFS APIs. Here is small code snippet I have created. ITestRun testRun = _plan . CreateTestRun ( false ); ITestCaseResultCollection results = testRun .
