TestComplete Azure re-run failed tests

[tphillips]

Hi

I am running TestComplete tests in Azure using the TestComplete test adapter. I noticed that the Visual Studio Test task has an option to re-run failed tests (much like the recently added feature for TestComplete).

However when I enable this option the pipeline errors out when trying to re-run any tests, saying that it couldn't find any tests to run.

It runs the tests again with the filter

FullyQualifiedName=<ProjectSuite>.testitem:<Project>\\<test case name>

Which I think it doesn't understand.

Is there a way to make the azure pipeline re-run the failed the tests, the same way that TestComplete itself can?

I am thinking I might have to change to just call TestExecute from a script, but I don't know if TestExecute can export JUnit to be consumed by the pipeline. From what I can tell, Smartbear recommends to use TestComplete test adapter with Visual Studio Test

Hi,

I would recommend to ask Support directly via the https://support.smartbear.com/message/?prod=TestComplete form.

I also will appreciate it if you update this thread with their reply.

I created a support ticket and so far have got a response saying they're looking into it:

"Thank you for creating a case!

We are looking into this issue. I will let you know when I have an update.

Thank you!"

I will post any further replies here
