Automated User Interface Testing with Visual Studio Team Services

Question

I am working on a WPF application and wanted to try the continuous integration workflow with Visual Studio Team Services.

Is it possible to use the TestStack.White library for my automated UI tests in the cloud with Visual Studio Team Services?

Answer 1

You will need to host your own Build Agent. The Hosted Build agents that Visual Studio Team Services uses cannot be run in interactive mode, which will be required for White to run and interact with your application.

From VisualStudio.com:

Q: Do you need to run your build service in interactive mode (not as a service)?

A: No. Then you can use the hosted pool.
