Unable to run a distributed test with the Save as option

When you use Run Distributed Tests for Web UI tests, and you select the Save as option to save the test assets as an AFT Suite in an XML file, the playback does not initiate.

Cause

The playback of the distributed test fails due to an exception and the newly created AFT Suite is not visible in the Test Navigator pane.

Resolution

  1. Right-click in the Test Navigator pane, and then click Refresh.

    The newly created AFT Suite with the XML file is displayed.

  2. Right-click the XML file, and then click Run Distributed Tests.
