ProblemUsers & Use Cases
DeliverablesFunctional Requirements
Non-Functional Requirements
Primary User – VS Tester◦ Works entirely in VS 2010◦ Develops requirements &
test cases◦ Executes test cases
Secondary User – AX Developer◦ Works entirely in Dynamics
AX◦ Develops code◦ Writes test cases
An executable which can be wrapped by VS Generic Test Case Wrapper which allows users to:◦ Manage Dynamics AX Tests◦ Execute Dynamics AX Tests◦ Report on Dynamics AX Tests
Tutorials which guide users to:◦ Create a generic test project◦ Create a generic test case◦ Create a build◦ Publish test results to an associated build◦ View published test results
1. Management◦ View wrapped AX test suite names within VS◦ Choose AX test suites to run within VS
2. Execution◦ AX test case results displayed in VS
3. Reporting◦ Display Error/Fail message normally associated with
test cases◦ Report Pass/Fails◦ Report number of test cases that were executed
4. Publish◦ Store results in TFS for viewing and later retrieval
Written in .NET managed code Tutorials & documentation designed for
ease of use Applicable to any valid Dynamics AX test
cases Takes no more than 10% longer than when
run in Dynamics AX
Functional DecompositionUser Interface
TestingEvaluation
Generic AX Test Case Runner◦ Invokes AX32.exe with arguments◦ Converts XML output from AX32.exe into TRX for VS
Test Results XML File (TRX)◦ File generated by ‘Generic AX Test Case Runner’◦ XML format VS can read◦ Contains all information about the test cases that were
run Generic Test Wrapper
◦ Built into VS◦ Allows management & execution of test cases not natively
supported by VS◦ Invokes command line argument of executable that can
run tests◦ Requires ‘Generic AX Test Case Runner’ to be used
Test Name Test Description Expected Outcome
Valid Test Case A valid generic test case is run
The results for the test case run in AX are shown in VS
AX32.exe not available The path for AX32.exe does not contain AX32.exe
Test runner catches this and returns an error to VS
No Tests Specified No test suites are entered in the generic wrapper
An error message “No filenames found in arguments.” is returned by the test execution
Invalid Test Name An invalid test suite name is entered in the generic wrapper
Dynamics AX returns an error message that our test runner handles
Improperly Formatted Summary Result File Location
An improperly formatted summary result XML file location is passed to the runner
An error message “Cannot read summary results file” is returned by VS
Test Name Test Description Expected Outcome
Test Case Pass A wrapped test case passes when run
VS displays the wrapped AX test case as a pass
Test Case Fail A wrapped test case fails when run
VS displays the wrapped AX test case as a failure along with a description of why the test case failed
Test Case Error A wrapped test case throws an error when run
VS displays the wrapped AX test case with an error along with an error message
Generic Test Timeout The generic test case timeout is hit by the test case execution
No results returned to the user
Tests execute in Dynamics AX All results returned from Dynamics AX Results displayed in Visual Studio Can publish results to TFS Results can be retrieved from TFS All above tasks can be accomplished by
following tutorials Multiple demos with client
Initial◦ Use of Microsoft Test & Lab Manager
Why Changed◦ Required functionality not available
Invoking Tests Saving/Retrieving test results
Initial◦ Excel Test Case Migrator
Why Changed◦ Migrated test cases:
Could not be associated with results Were not generic No fields in TFS for information about the tests to be
linked to
Initial◦ Invoke AX over a network
Why Changed◦ Overly complicated the solution
Required installation of a Web Server◦ Outside the scope of what client wanted
Project is a “How To” Focus is not on adding features
Generic AX Test Case Runner executable◦ Works with VS 2010 Generic Test Wrapper
Tutorials◦ How to:
Create a test project & generic test Get generic test to invoke AX Test Case Runner Create a build using TFS Publish the test results after running the generic test
Publish to Codeplex
