Starting .msc files from .net application.

When writing code, lot of times we have come across situation where we want to start event viewer or any other application which uses management console . The code below shows how to start event viewer from .net application. This can be used to start services.msc or any other similar files.

Process traceFileViewerProcess = new Process(); 

string executable = Environment.ExpandEnvironmentVariables(@"%SystemRoot%\system32\eventvwr.msc"); 

traceFileViewerProcess.StartInfo.FileName = executable; 
 

traceFileViewerProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = "/s";

Migrating from Nunit to VSTS

Converting your pretty good old test cases from Nunit to VS test cases is not as simple as posted in many blogs.

I tried to convert my test cases its really pain guys..

Its not jut renaming the name spaces and setting the alias. The Assert class itself is different. Microsoft Assert class is directly opposite to the Nunit assert classes.

For namespace and alias changes the following code is enough.

using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting; 

using TestFixture = Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting.TestClassAttribute; 

using Test = Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting.TestMethodAttribute; 

using SetUp = Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting.TestInitializeAttribute; 

using TearDown = Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting.TestCleanupAttribute ; 

using TestFixtureSetUp = Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting.ClassInitializeAttribute; 

using TestFixtureTearDown = Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting.ClassCleanupAttribute;
