I'd like to run all of my tests on a remote server, but whenever I start Test Studio, the Test Runner application starts.

I've unchecked the "Run on start up" option - so it doesn't run on start-up... but it still runs and appears as an option in the "Run List Remotely" dialog box.

I checked the Test Studio settings but didn't see any way to disable Test Runner start-up.

In order to get a better picture of the results of our tests, we're trying to run them on a remote server.

Test Runner is configured to run on start-up - but it only seems to activate when a user remotes in to the headless server via RDP.

The machine is rebooted occasionally, and I typically discover this by selecting Run List Remotely in Test Studio - then finding no remote computers available to run my tests (these are tests of an ASP.NET MVC website).

When this happens, I remote into the server and Test Runner starts, then I can continue testing until the machine is rebooted again.

I tried creating a scheduled job via PowerShell to start the Test Runner via Telerik.TestStudio.Scheduling.Client.exe... but that doesn't seem to have solved the problem.

I found this in the Test Studio documentation: http://docs.telerik.com/teststudio/knowledge-base/scheduling-kb/keep-active-session

It says "Telerik tests running against HTML-based web applications (ASP .NET and others) frequently can work on a locked machine because most test steps don't use the mouse or keyboard."

That doesn't seem to be the issue - the issue here seems to be that a user account hasn't logged in in the first place.

The article also cautions against the approach documented on Windows Server 2008. The server I'm working with is Windows 2008 RT Enterprise SP1.

So what is the best way to correct this issue - preferably using PowerShell if scripting is required?

Only while performance testing on iexplorer I get the message that the CA root cert is not trusted because it isn't in the Trusted Root Certification Authorities store. As you can see, the child cert is OK & I don't get the option to install/add the CA root cert to the Trusted Root Certification Authorities store.

Hi,

I'm having a very serious problem with the Telerik scheduling services.  I have a monitoring script that runs every night(most usage of the system under test is at night time) and is setup using the test scheduler and google smtp server.  When I schedule a run during the day time(aka scheduling an immediately run manually) Telerik does send out failure emails as expected to my Gmail account.  However, whenever the script is scheduled to run when I am not here at night time, I never get any warning emails telling me the script failed.  This basically prevent me from getting the proper early warning and prevents me taking immediate action when there's a problem.  Can you please help me resolve this problem.

The type of failure errors I typically get are usually due to performances related problems like a link taking to long to show up on a page(going over my expected timeout):

ie:  System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

The SMTP Server used is as follows:
Address: aspmx.l.google.com
Port: 25
SSL: Checked off

GMail settings:
POP:  Enabled
IMAP:  Enabled

Trying to verify the content of a standard MVC dropdown using Test Studio.

Here's the DOM

<select id="PartnerSelectId" name="PartnerId" style="width: 240px" class="valid">
<option value="22">Bank B</option>
<option value="24">Bank C</option>
<option value="23">Switch A</option>
<option value="66">Telerik Test Partner</option>
</select>

Looking to verify if Telerik Test Partner exists, and hopefully will use this in an If/Else block to delete it if it does so that we can add it in again during the test.


Any help would be appreciated.

1. How to select a checkbox based on value from CSV data sources
(eg, 'true' in csv, checkbox will be checked)

2. Dropdown list item is selected based on value from CSV data sources

How can this be done in Telerik Test Studio without code?
If must customize, please provide sample code in VB.NET, thanks

Hi,

I'm evaluating Telerik Test Studio features now. I've no knowledge on programming skills but I can pick up.
refer to online documentation, there is Write into Data Source (Excel).
I can't find sample code how to write into .csv file
In my test script, I need to do verify - text contains 'Contact Us'.
If (verify - text contains 'Contact Us') true, then I need to write 'Pass'
in .csv output file.

Could you provide sample code on how to write to.csv data sources with VB.NET. Thanks.

Hi,

Is there a simple way to force a Browser refresh?  I tried re-navigating to my URL but that didn't do the trick.  Is there a way I can send a shortcut command to the browser, something like Ctrl-F5?  (I understand that shortcuts on one browser won't work with another, but I'm just interested in IE at the moment.)

Thanks,

Within Test Studio

I would like two new buttons

1. Select All
2. Select None

This would be useful within

1. Test ->Steps

If a test is made of many steps it quickly becomes tiresome to de-select and the select multiple steps.

Hello, we are doing some proves with your product (Test studio), one of them requires to test an aplication made in c#, we need to know if Test Studio supports  this lenguage and others like delphi and delphi .net.
If is posible to have a tutorial to create this kind of test, We will be very grateful.
