I'm looking help for Microsoft Team foundation server 2013 , in fact i want to integrate selenium script with auto build. when build is deployed my selenium script run automatically on new build,
I'm new to Team foundation server so i don't have much idea about integration selenium script , please explain in detail so that i can follow exact steps.
My script is placed at Team foundation server repository , do i need to compile my selenium script with auto-build or no need to compile
You just need to build the selenium project and then run the test with it.

I am working using TFS to create test case. I have a automated test written in Robotframework with Selenium2Library.
I'd like to be able to associate these tests with test cas in test. Is it possible to link the automated test cases with the test case in TFS, and if so, how is it done?
The web Test page does not support to run automatic tests associated with test cases in TFS.
You can achieve the same goals using the Build & Release features in Team Foundation Server (TFS). (https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/docs/test/lab-management/use-build-or-rm-instead-of-lab-management). Simply integrate Selenium testing into a continuous integration/continuous delivery pipeline.
Instead of build, suggest you use a step in a release pipeline. Take a look at this question:How can i run automated selenium tests using TFS build 2015?
More detail steps about how to integrate with TFS please go through the official tutorials from MSDN: Get started with Selenium testing in a CD pipeline
So I have a JMeter load test that is running in VSTS. I was wondering if it is at all possible to run this test through Visual Studio itself? I would be interested in viewing more details about the test through Application Insights.
The JMeter test is running in the cloud. I know about load test projects in Visual Studio, but is there a way to add the JMeter tests from VSTS?
Many thanks.
It is not supported to add/run Apache JMeter load test through VS 2017.

Our web application codes are stored on SVN instead with TFS. We are trying to set up our automated UI testing.
These are following tools our team are considered to use.
- Microsoft Test Manager (Create Test cases associate with User stories)
- Coded UI (Connect to TFS and Microsoft Test Manager)
- Selenium (Automated UI coded)
- Team Foundation Server 2015 (Test cases and User stories)

We only want to configure automated UI testing for our website. Is there any way to run the set up the automated testing without build through TFS?
Thank you and any feedback is appreciated.
So here is the thing,
Coded Ui is not a connector to TFS & MTM it by itself an automation
framework/tool like selenium
You don't need both Selenium & Coded UI for your automation. You only need either of it
If all you want is to get started with automation for your application, you can do it just with a version of visual studio which has Coded Ui. (The latest supporting version is Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise edition)
See this like to know How to create Coded Ui Tests , see this link to know how to Run a Coded Ui Test
It's based on your workflow. Whether your app/code is on-premises or in the cloud, you can automate build-deploy-test workflows and choose the technologies and frameworks, then test your changes continuously in a fast, scalable, and efficient manner. And just as Prageeth said, Coded Ui is an automation framework/tool just like selenium.
In TFS either code ui or selenium test more like continuous testing. The workflow is such as bleow:
First make sure that your app still works after every check-in and
build using TFS. Find problems earlier by running tests
automatically with each build. When your build is done, review your
test results to start resolving the problems that you find.

If you insist on without building from TFS, you could also use the Code UI function with VS on local.
You can setup Test controller and Test Agent VMs in MTM test lab. This will allow you to execute your automated tests on Test Agent directly in MTM. Otherwise, you can execute Coded UI tests locally in Visual Studio.
In my company, I have plans to introduce Web Automation using Selenium WebDriver and Cucumber JVM using Maven builds.
Since the developers write their code in C#, they are all using TFS for source code repository and recommending the QA team also to use TFS to maintain my tests written in JAVA.
These are the questions I have got in my mind:
QA team will use IntelliJ IDE for writing Selenium tests in JAVA. Is IntelliJ compatible with TFS? Or is it a pain to configure it to work with TFS?
As we will move towards TDD very soon, we have to setup CI server as well.
Is it possible for me to run Selenium Tests triggered from TFS or do I need to use a separate CI server like Jenkins or Teamcity?
Does maven build work smoothly with TFS?
We have to adhere to stringent ISO guidelines for maintaining the source code. If I were to recommend source code repositories like github, can I ensure that the code is still secure? Is it difficult to setup the security in github?
Answering your questions regarding TFS:
IntelliJ IDEA supports TFS up to TFS 2015. Check:
Visual Studio Team Foundation Plugin for IntelliJ and Android Studio
Using TFS Integration
TFS supports CI build. After you've deployed a Windows build agent or an Xplat build agent, you are ready to define a CI build that compiles your Java app with Maven whenever your team checks in code.
Yes. Check:
Build your Java app with Maven
I have been creating codedUI tests for a website in VS2010.
What I would like to do is add these tests to our build process as a form of gated checkin. So if new code produced failed tests then it this code rejected.
does anyone have any experience or know of any resouces regarding this setup.
Thanks in advance
If you are using TFS for your builds you can easily integrate the tests into your build process. If you are using something else for your build process you will need to have MSTEST installed on the build server and another machine to run the tests as an agent.
