Unit test project not building from build server

Question

My VS2010 solution has a test project in it. The unit tests themselves reference the following namespace:

using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting         


        

Answer 1

The .UnitTestFramework.dll sits in C:\Program Files... folder and you have a reference to it.

1. Create directory under your source control eg. Source/Binaries
2. Copy the said dll into Source/Binaries
3. Remove the reference to .UnitTestFramework.dll from your unit test assembly
4. Add the reference to .UnitTestFramework.dll to your unit test assembly but this time select the dll that is now under Source/Binaries

After that you can checkin your changes (make sure the Source/Binaries folder is checked in) and build the solution. When build server builds the solution it should get the dll from the source control.
