Question

I have a TestMethod that will loop through all pages that contain a certain user control on them. The issue I’m running into is that when/if my assertion fails I’m not able to see the page it failed on in the error message or stack trace. Is there a way to customize or add in additional parameters to be shown in the test results details?

Not that it’s really needed, but here’s my code…

[TestMethod]
public void uiTestCourseListingPages() {
    UiBrowserWindow uiBrowserWindow = new UiBrowserWindow();
    string controlType = "~/_control/course/courseList.ascx";
    var request = WebRequest.Create(Utility.GET_PAGES_WITH_CONTROL_URL + controlType);
    request.ContentType = "application/json; charset=utf-8";

    using(var response = request.GetResponse()) {
        using(var streamReader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream())) {
            JavaScriptSerializer serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
            List<PagesWithControl> pagesWithControl = serializer.Deserialize<List<PagesWithControl>>(streamReader.ReadToEnd());
            pagesWithControl.ForEach(x => {
                // launch browser
                uiBrowserWindow.launchUrl(x.key);
                // setup assertions
                Assert.AreEqual(
                     uiBrowserWindow.uiHtmlDocument.searchHtmlElementByAttributeValues<HtmlDiv>(new Dictionary<string, string> {
                        {HtmlDiv.PropertyNames.Class, "footer"}
                    }).Class,
                    "footer"
                );
            });
        }
    }
}

There is an overloaded Assert.AreEqual(object,object,string). If you put the URL into the string that would show up in the test results.
