shair — Thu, 07 Jul 2011 15:16:00 GMT

Couple of months ago Sela Collage were a sponsor in Microsoft ALM Summit in Seattle, there we announced on ALM Products and the first version of Web Test Manager -

Innovative approach to managing and running your tests - Any Test – AnyWhere - Anytime (by Everyone) under TFS 2010.

WTM = Manage your tests directly from your browser in TFS 2010

Now, for the first time you can manage your tests without the need for any local installation, WTM is a web application integrated in VS 2010 Team Web Access™.

With WTM you can:

Run & Edit Tests from any remote computer
Run tests on heterogeneous testing environments (Mac, Linux, AS400 and more)
Save 80% or more of the standard costs
Requires only a one time installation on the TFS server (no local installations are required)
Easy to use and light to run
Fast running with quick responsiveness
Allows developers to easily run tests as well

I’m glad to announce that Sela Collage has released Web Test Manager 1.0, and It’s now available to download from Sela ALM Products Page

Problem Creating Work Item Store From Web Service (Work Item Tracking Metadata Cache)

I create a Web Service for a customer and during the development I had a little problem getting WorkItemStore object.

Error 1:

Cannot complete the operation. An unexpected error occurred.

The problem is in the ClientCacheDirectoryForInstance property on the TeamFoundationServer class.

The problem was fixed by giving write permissions for the application pool to the Cache folder.

The Solution

Enable Integrated Windows Authentication and Turn Off Anonymous Access

Open inetmgr, right click “Web Application” and choose properties.

Select “Directory Security” and enter “Authentication Methods”

Clear all checkbox except “Integrated Windows Authentication”.

Create an Application Pool for a Web Application

Create a default application pool and enter the Identity of the user name for the domain account under which you want your Web page to run in the User name field, using the domain\user name format.

Change Web Application to Work With the New ApplicationPool

This will fix the problem.
