Problems running Team Builds with ASP.NET applications

[Steve]

Hi guys,

I have a test solution (called TP2) which is checked in to a Team
Project (also called TP2). The solution contains:

* DLL (containing a single test class)
* Unit Test project (which trivially tests the class in the DLL)
* ASP.NET application (which exposes simple web-service and a single
ASPX page, both of which use the class in DLL)
* Windows application (which calls the simple web-service above)

The code compiles, the unit test passes and all the code in the
solution has been checked in.

I have set up a Team Build for the solution. It is configured to
perform testing and code coverage. However, this doesn't work. The
collection and compilation of the code works fine, but the build falls
over when it gets to the 'Running tests' phase of the build.
Strangely, it reports that the test passes. Here's a section from the
BuildLog.txt file:

Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so, how did you get the
Team Build working?

Thanks in advance,

Steve.

Is the build server a 64-bit machine? As far as I remember there are issues
with code analysis on 64bit team builds but I could be wrong.

Hi Leon,

Thanks for the suggestion! I'm afraid the TFS server is a 32-bit
machine, so back to the drawing board again. It's worth pointing out
that code analysis does work in non-ASP.NET projects.

Thanks again,

Steve.
