如何动态获取MTM / TFS测试用例ID，以调用相关的自动化

Question

Right now our test base has 1:1 association in that for every Test Case on MTM/TFS - there is a C# test class that is associated to that test case only.

Within the test class the test case ID is hard coded as a value and that's how the data parameters are retrieved from the MTM/TFS Test Case to be executed at run time.

Unfortunately this has caused a lot of bloat and a lot of test cases that aren't much more than copy/pasted templates with the hardcoded test case Id being modified.

Is there a way for a SINGLE C# TestClass to retrieve the data dynamically from the MTM/TFS Test Case that is associated with it? And therefore the ability to have many MTM/TFS Test Cases associated to that SINGLE C# Test Class?

Answer 1

If you are looking to get test case id from code within a test case class, you can get it from the TestContext instance. The following blog post gives you the list of a properties present in the class.

The following code will give you the test case Id

var testCaseId = TestContext.Properties["__Tfs_TestCaseId__"].ToString()

Hope it helps
