To test the SiteStarter, WorkHub, or related/derived projects...

First, checkout from SVN OR download the source release zip.

Then choose from one of the following approaches:

Approach A) Via IDE

1) Open the [ProjectName].Tests.[IDE].sln file

2) Open the unit tests panel in the IDE

3) Right click a test or assembly

4) Launch the test(s)

5) View the results in the IDE (ie. output panel, error list, and/or unit tests panel)


Approach B) Via Commander.exe console

1) Open the Commander.exe file
(Tip: Maximize it to ensure you can see the result)

2) Find the number for the desired run tests command

- CycleTests: Builds the project and runs all unit, integration, and functional tests

- RunTests: Runs unit and integration tests (without building first)

- RunFunctionalTests-GUI-[browser]: Runs functional tests (without building first)
(Tip: Running in firefox is more reliable than running in IE)

3) View the results in the /TestResults/html/
