Visual Studio 2015 Unit Test IntelliTrace Results

Where would I find the results saved by IntelliTrace for a unit test in Visual Studio 2015? I checked IntelliTrace in the testsettings file, but can't figure out where I should look to see anything IntelliTrace captured.

I found some links like this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6hl8txBGcc), but the "View Results" window in VS2015 doesn't show any results for unit tests.

Thanks for any help!

Solution

  • Firsly, make sure that unit testing engine uses your test setting file. To do so:

    1. Select Test menu from the toolbar.
    2. Test Settings -> Select Test Settings File
    3. Navigate to your file and select it.

    Now, you can run your tests. Then select a test that has failed. In the details, just below a message you will see Output link. Click it.

    You should see something like that:

    In the Attachment group box there is your IntelliTrace log.

    You can also find IntelliTrace logs in Test Results directory. By default, it is located in the root of a solution.
