I recently started using CassiniDev to run my WatiN tests on our CI servers. I when I build and test to our two 32 bit machines I have no problem running my tests. However when I build and test on our 64bit machine, I get the following error:
Could not load file or assembly 'CassiniDev4-lib, Version=4.0.1.7,
Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=f7f6e0b4240c7c27' or one of its dependencies.
An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format.
which I have come to find out is due to conflicts with the 64bit environment. On my local machine, which is 64bit I have no problem setting the platform target to x86 and my tests running like a dream. However, if I change my release configuration to target x86 and deploy to our 64bit machine, I still get the same error. Does anyone know of a work around for this? Some way that I could be able to build and test on both 32 and 64bit machines?
I’ll go ahead and answer this in case other people run into the same issue I’ve been having. What I ended up doing was creating a new configuration in Visual Studio called WatiN, in that I set all my projects to x86. On my CI server I build and run my WatiN tests separately from everything else using the WatiN configuration.
