Running individual test scripts from Visual Studio

• Build

  See the build instructions

  • Build NuGetShared if necessary
  • Build the test project

• Start or Stop NuGetShared

  The NuGetShared module contains code shared by the other projects. This can cause problems when executing test scripts. The other projects' psm1 modules import NuGetShared if necessary. Tests don't always see it if it is already imported and import it again. This causes Pester to fail in Mock. The workaround is to preload NuGetShared. It needs to be removed and imported again when it has been rebuilt.

  • Set up the PowerShell Interactive Window

    Select the PowerShell Interactive Window and enter Get-Module to to see the imported modules. Use Remove-Module to remove any of the solution's modules: NuGetShared, NuGetDebPacker and DbSolutionBuilder.

    • When testing NuGetShared

      Use Import-Module to import NuGetShared

      Import-Module .\NugetShared\bin\Debug\NuGetShared\NuGetShared.psm1

    • When testing other projects

      Use Import-Module to import NuGetShared first then the module being tested

      Import-Module .\NugetShared\bin\Debug\NuGetShared\NuGetShared.psd1

      Import-Module .\DbSolutionBuilder\bin\Debug\DbSolutionBuilder\DbSolutionBuilder.psm1
