When I get the command line options for ArtOfTest.Runner.exe, I see there is a 'settings' option...

        settings=[file path]          The full path to a XML file containg the
                                      custom params and/or settings for the run.

But I can't find any other information about this option, or the format of the XML file.  

Is there more information about this option available?  I tried passing in a .testsettings file but it didn't have any effect on the test run.

(btw, containing is misspelled in the option's description)

Thanks,
Mark Ott

Hello Mark,

I agree it's not clear in our documentation (something we do need to work on) but it is using this format:
http://www.telerik.com/automated-testing-tools/support/documentation/user-guide/write-tests-in-code/intermediate-topics/settings-and-configuration/using-application-config-file.aspx

All the best,

Hi Cody,

I followed the steps as mentioned in the link you shared. But i am getting onemessage

"Load project: The settings file is missing in the 'C:\SmokeTest\bin' Please set the root path.

As you mentioned, is there any documentation on how to use commandline?

I used like this

ArtofTest.Runner test=C:\SmokeTest\bin\SmokeTestTrimmed.tstest settings=C:\SmokeTest\bin\Autotest.dll.config

1) Am i doing something wrong here?

2) Do i need to add Manager mgr = new Manager(true); somewhere in code?

3) Do i need to use settings.aiis also along with this xml?

Kindly let me know.

Thanks,

VVP

Hello Vishnu,

First yes ArtOfTest.Runner does also need settings.aiis file. You should be running a test contained in a test project, which includes a settings.aiis file. You can tell ArtOfTest.Runner where to find this file using the "root=" command line parameter. For example root="c:\My Documents\Test Studio Projects\Project A".

You do not need to add "Manager mgr = new Manager(true);"
