Test will not be shown in VS-Test Explorer if a '#' is in ProjectDir

[MichaSommerWebDe]

Hi,

if my project lies in e.g. k:\Test\GoogleTest.App\GoogleTest.App.sln everything works fine... The same project in k:\Test#\GoogleTest.App\GoogleTest.App.sln and the test are not visible in Visual Studio Test Explorer.

Output-Tests [14.06.2018 12:31:21 Informational] No tests found to run.

In both cases I can run the tests successfully via command line. If you need further information dont hesitate to contact me.

Thanks Michael

Please try to enable GTA's Debug mode through its options. It will tell which executables are considered for test discovery. If your executable is listed, but not recognized as a gtest executable, have a look at the trouble shooting section. Otherwise, this is a VS issue, since GTA relies on VS to report the executables to it. Hope this helps...

Hi,

runsettings are were loaded directly via Test->Test Settings File->Select Test Settings File Architecture was set to x64

I ran the project in GTA's Debug Mode and got in normal case (don't care about the name BoostTests ;) it works with Google Tests)

Directory is K:\Test

Test output is: see attached file Test_Output_ok.txt calling direct from PowerShell output is: see attached file PowerShell_Ok.txt

everything works fine…

Now I copied the same!!! project to K:\Test# (the only difference is the # in the name!)

Test Output is: [14.06.2018 20:53:53 Informational] No tests found to run.

but calling directly from PS shows: attached file PowerShell_nok.txt (test works fine)

using the BoostTest.TestApplication.exe.is_google_test file will also not show the tests in Test Explorer.

Resharper finds and runs the tests in both Directories.

If you need further information, please contact me! (in german would be fine ;))

Have a nice evening…

Best regards!

Michael

If I see correctly, there is no output at all before the "No tests to run" line. That means that your executable is not reported to GTA by the VS test framework (which provides the executables which have just been compiled to GTA by invoking this method). Thus, VS does not recognize your executable as one to be reported to the installed test adapters (this is not about GTA being unable to handle your executable, it is about not even knowing about your executable). Btw: The string "No tests found to run" is not contained in my repository afaik, so this is already a message by VS.

From my quick glance, I fear there's nothing I can do about this... Your best option appears to be to contact MS about that issue.
