CodedUI Test: How to run from Web Portal (MS Test Manager's replacement)

Leave a Comment

Using the Test hub in the Web Portal why is the "Associated Automation" tab completely empty, greyed out and prevented from being used?

What do I need to do to enable all this and run a coded ui test? I have hand coded, Coded UI tests that are build and in dlls but need to run the tests in those dlls in my test suite.

For background, I can run the tests in the dlls using a batch file and have done so successfully but struggling to get started running them from my test plan! My Microsoft "Test Manager" has the same problem, all greyed out but as Test Manager is being deprecated I am less concerned about that.

EDIT:

Another way of viewing this problem is to ask why does the Automation Status not show the option "Automated"? See picture below ...

It is not possible per MSDN documentation.

In the visual studio development environment, try right clicking on a test in test explorer, clicking something such as "Associate to Test Case", then entering in the test case number and see if that works. I believe it is greyed otu because there is no valid input options through the web right now.
