Run Tests on every build, automatically

I wanted to run my tests on each project build (CTRL-SHIft-B) I accomplished it using macros, here are the steps:

Make sure that you have a window where you can run the tests from visible , in my case I’m using Test Results because I had run a couple of test already but the same approach should work using Test View or Test List Editor)

• First we need to record a macro to lunch the Tests

the macro toolbar will appear

• while recording the macro, click on the desire option to run the test, for example in my case I’ll click on “Run All Tests in Tests Results”

• if you are using the Test List Editor for example you should click on “Run Checked Test”

• Stop recording the macro using the macro toolbar.
• Now open the Macros IDE

• Under “MyMacros” Select the recording module

• Cut the code generated under TemporaryMacro() and then from “MyMacros”  select (double click) EnviromentEvents
• From the dropdowns select  BuildEvents and then OnBuildProjConfigDone

• and then paste the code generated for the RecordingModule (the code should be in you clipboard from two steps above)
• save it and ready to go… when you build your project you should see the tests running by themselves….
