How to parse trx file from vstest.console bamboo

[Greg Polito]

We are using 6.6.3. I see that others are using MSTest Parser. But it does not seem to be working for me. The location is where the file is located. and I specified the file name.

Well, the servers were rebooted over the weekend, and with no changes, it worked today. I guess something changed, or I don't know what...but it worked. But thanks for your time.

Hi Greg,

Something worth looking at, are you sure the test results file exists where you are looking for it? 

I only ask because my development team has moved where test results get output via the msbuild file in the past and I need to update the location the parser is looking, which generates log lines similar to what you have indicated above.

I hope that helps.

I am putting the file in that location and verified the file is in that location....the directory is correct and the file is there..

Hi Greg,

Ok I have two possible routes for you.  If you are using the MSTest Parser, you might be running into the same issue as reported here:

https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Bamboo-questions/MSTest-unable-to-parse-results/qaq-p/308991

I took a look at my own environment and realized that we aren't acutually using the MSTest Parser task.  I'm using the NUnit Parser task who's configuration looks like this:

I hope one of those two options helps you resolve your issue.
