grunt-vstest

Run tests using the Visual Studio test runner via Grunt

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.5. In other words it should work on 0.4.5 or higher.

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-vstest --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-vstest');

The "vstest" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named vstest to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

grunt.initConfig({
    vstest: {
        dev: {
            src: ["Example.Tests/bin/Release/*Tests.dll"], // Relative path to test dll(s)
			options: {
				// Listing all currently supported options
				settings: "Local.RunSettings",
				inIsolation: true,
				platform: "x64",
				framework: "framework45", // Valid values are Framework35, Framework40 and Framework45
				testCaseFilter: "TestCategory!=KnownError",
				logger: "trx"
			}
        }
    }
});
