I have built a test with UI automation using Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate. I would like to run the test on computers that have other editions of Visual Studio 2010 installed, not Ultimate. However when I try to use mstest\testcontainer:tests.dll (the dll file of the test with the debug library) there was error that it was missing one of the test files.
Is there a way to run a UI test on a computer without the Ultimate edition? Thanks.
If you're referring to the Coded UI tests, it's only available on the Ultimate or Premium versions of VS2010. If a user is using the Express or Professional, they just won't be able to do it.
If upgrading those users to Ultimate/Premium isn't an option, you might want to look at a different UI testing tool.
Coded UI Tests only run with VS Ultimate and VS Premium.
Here is an overview showing which VS edition supports which testing features: http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/products.
Here is the screenshot of the link above, just in case the URL shouldn't work anymore one day:
