When developing tests using EasyRepro there are going to be plenty of times during the debugging process where you end up cancelling before the test runs to completion. When that happens the WebDriver for the browser you're testing on doesn't have the chance to shut down properly. The most obvious result of that is the browser being left open. Annoying, but easily fixed by just closing it. The other hidden side effect is that you end up with a number of leftover processes left open on your machine. Probably not going to grind your machine to halt but it would be better if those processe ..read more

There were several issues raised on the EasyRepro project that requested a report of the results after a test run completed. One specifically referenced using the Extent Reporting Framework as a means to accomplish this. It seemed like a reasonable ask so I thought I’d give it a try. I'd expect a decent report to provide not only the results of a run showing if tests passed or failed but also detail about what specifically was being tested and include screen shots throughout the process. This will make it easier for a non-developer to interpret and possibly troubleshoot tests ..read more

It goes without saying that tests are going to fail from time to time. Luckily EasyRepro does a pretty good job of providing descriptive error messages to make troubleshooting issues easier. Inevitably the first person to deal with an issue is going to be the developer and most likely they'll need to re-run the test on their local machine to watch exactly what happens. Debugging or at least offloading some of the triaging tests can be made easier by capturing screenshots and/or videos of tests as they are running. ScreenshotsAlone this isn’t anything new as EasyRepro already has TakeWindowScre ..read more

More than once while working with EasyRepro projects I’ve found myself in a situation where tests that were once working inexplicably stopped. After combing through code and verifying credentials I eventually figured out that references to one or more of the required Selenium components somehow got updated without my knowledge. An example of when this can be particularly frustrating is when the Chrome driver gets updated to the latest version which works with the always updated version of Chrome installed on my machine. Everything works fine when running tests locally. When deploying to Azure ..read more

With online D365 CE instances getting updates pushed regularly it makes it almost impossible to ensure that you’ve tested against the latest bits. That’s assuming you even know about each update since the majority go in silently in the background. Realizing that organizations need to test before updates roll out to production or at least be aware of issues caused by updates before users start reporting them, Microsoft has taken the first steps to allow you to get ahead of potential issues. The Microsoft.Xrm.Tooling.Testing PowerShell library (in preview at time of writing) has been released w ..read more
