Which workload is required to install MSTest with Build Tools 2022?

I'm setting up a CI/CD VM for building and testing .NET Framework applications.

So, I'm installing the Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.ManagedDesktopBuildTools, Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.WebBuildTools and Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.TestAgent workloads, but I still cannot find MSTest.exe on my VM.

Which workload do I need to add to be able to perform automated component tests using the command line?

Solution

  • We investigated further and found that the Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.TestTools.BuildTools workload is required to install VSTest.Console.exe along with Visual Studio Build Tools 2022.
