从mssql-server docker容器中运行“ dotnet测试”

Question

I have a dotnet build process running in docker based on the microsoft/dotnet-framework:4.7.2-sdk image.

Restore, build and publish works as expected, but my integration tests require SQL Server to be installed on the machine.

I would like to use a multistage build to run the dotnet test (or more specifically in my case dotnet xunit ) command within a container based on microsoft/mssql-server-windows-developer:2017-latest .

But doing that I no longer have access to the dotnet sdk. How can I run dotnet test from the second stage of my build.

Some like this (not working, the last step fails, because the dotnet command is not recognized):

FROM microsoft/dotnet-framework:4.7.2-sdk AS build
WORKDIR /app

# # Copy csproj and restore as distinct layers
COPY ./*.sln ./NuGet.config  ./
COPY ./libs ./libs
COPY ./src ./src

WORKDIR /app/src/Tests/
RUN dotnet build 

FROM microsoft/mssql-server-windows-developer:2017-latest
WORKDIR /app/
COPY --from=build /app/src/Tests/ .
RUN dotnet xunit

Answer 1

After several unsuccessful attempts of trying to install the dotnet build tools and prerequisites for running the tests on the 'microsoft/mssql-server-windows-developer' image, I found that installing Sql Server on the `microsoft/dotnet-framework:4.7.2-sdk' image was probably easier. A lot easier actually.

Though I followed this guide https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/visualstudio-docs/blob/master/docs/install/build-tools-container.md is ran in to all kinds of trouble actually running the tests.

But the other way around works. Build takes some time, but it works. The start of my Dockerfile is:

# The 'docker build' command must be run with '-m 4g' argument for sql server.
FROM microsoft/dotnet-framework:4.7.2-sdk

SHELL [ "powershell.exe", "-Command" ]

RUN curl.exe -L -o sql.box https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=840944
RUN curl.exe -L -o sql.exe https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=840945
RUN Start-Process -Wait -FilePath .\sql.exe -ArgumentList /qs, /x:setup
RUN .\setup\setup.exe /q /ACTION=Install /INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER /FEATURES=SQLEngine /UPDATEENABLED=0 /SQLSVCACCOUNT='NT AUTHORITY\System' /SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS='BUILTIN\ADMINISTRATORS' /TCPENABLED=1 /NPENABLED=0 /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS

ENV MSSQL_IS_RUNNING_IN_DOCKER true

The rest is just standard copy/dotnet build/dotnet test stuff.
