I have some webtests I'd like to run as part of a build. Can webtests be run on the TFS build server without VS 2008 team system tester edition installed?
Webtests can only be recorded using the tester edtion of visual studio. Here's a post from Jeff while he was at Vertigo.
My question is in order to run these tests on the build server does Tester edition of visual studio need to be installed?
You don't have to have the tester's edition; the Developer Edition works, as long as you can code and run those tests locally.
I believe with the standard MSDN license, if you have Developer Edition, you can run a single build server with a copy of it. There might be some extra limitations, such as who can run builds on the server; you should review your license agreement to see if there are any issues.
