Automatic Testing using the Coded UI Framework
Lesson 4 – Coded UI Test
Omer Karpas

Creating a Coded UI test
 To create a Coded UI Test (several options):
 From the Top Menu: Test -> New Test

 select “Coded UI Test”, enter a name for the test and
press OK.

 To create a Coded UI Test (several options):
 From the Solution Explorer: right click on a folder or on
the project file -> Add -> Coded UI Test…

Anatomy of a Coded UI Test

using System.Text.RegularExpressions;
using System.Windows.Input;

 In this section we add all
classes we need to create
coded ui tests.
 The last 4 classes are from
Microsoft Testing
Framework.
 We need the “UnitTesting”
class, although we do not
create unit tests, because it
contains basic parts like the
Test Execution engine.

namespace TestProject1
{
/// <summary>
/// Summary description for
CodedUITest1
/// </summary>
[CodedUITest]
public class CodedUITest1
{
public CodedUITest1()
{
}
 The namespace where this
test belongs to. By default it’s
the name of the Project but
can be changed.
 CodedUITest Attribute
allows the testing
framework to recognize it
as a testing extension.
 The class name
 The class default Constractor

[TestMethod]
public void CodedUITestMethod1()
}
// To generate code for this
test, select "Generate Code for
Coded UI Test" from the shortcut
menu and select one of the menu
items.
// For more information on
generated code, see
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?

{
 The TestMethodAttribute is
automatically applied to the
method, which allows the testing
framework to recognize it as a Test
Method to show in the Test View.
 This method contains calls to
methods of Actions and
Verifications located in other files
(the UIMap or the Implementaion
file).

#region Additional test attributes
// You can use the following additional
attributes as you write your tests:
////Use TestInitialize to run code before
running each test
//[TestInitialize()]
//public void MyTestInitialize()
//}
// To generate code for this test, select
"Generate Code for Coded UI Test" from
the shortcut menu and select one of the
menu items.
// For more information on generated code,
see
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=
179463
//{
 TestInitialize attribute
causes this method to run
before the TestMethod
method.
 This method is used for
Prerequisites of the test.
Example: create data to be
used in the test.
 Use of this method is
optional.

////Use TestCleanup to run code
after each test has run
//[TestCleanup()]
//public void MyTestCleanup()
//}
// To generate code for this test,
select "Generate Code for Coded UI
Test" from the shortcut menu and
select one of the menu items.
// For more information on generated
code, see
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?Li

#endregion
 TestCleanup attribute
causes this method to run
after the TestMethod
method.
 This method is used for
Post requisites of the test.
Example: delete data that
was created by the test.
 Use of this method is
optional.

/// <summary>
///Gets or sets the test context which
provides
///information about and functionality for
the current test run.
///</summary>
public TestContext TestContext
{
get
{
return testContextInstance;
}
set
{
testContextInstance = value;
}
{
private TestContext testContextInstance;
 TestContext property.
 This class is used to store data
related to the tests.
 Examples:
 test name.
 Test state (fail/pass).
 Etc..

public UIMap UIMap
}
get
}
if ((this.map == null))
}
this.map = new UIMap();
{
return this.map;
{
{
private UIMap map;
 UIMap property.
 Create an instance of the
UIMap.
