Unfortunately, this issue is not trivial. Current dev tools, including the VSTS do not support running tests in the traditional way. In order for a Silverlight test to run, it needed to be hosted inside a web page. This is quite problematic when trying to practice TDD and even running the tests on your CI server.
Let's start at the beginning:
The Silverlight Sdk (aka Silverlight tools), contains a project type for Silverlight tests. Simply click New –> Project –> Silverlight and select Silverlight Unit testing Application:
As I mentioned before, Silverlight unit tests can only be run under a host web site, so after creating the project, Visual Studio will ask you to create a web site to host the tests.
In the unit testing project, a class will be created with the familiar VSTS test class:
[TestClass]
public class Tests
{
[TestMethod]
public void TestMethod1()
{
var c = new Class1();
var result = c.Test();
Assert.IsTrue(result);
}
}
