Developers can configure visual studio to run tests
remotely and concurrently on a configured test controller and agent groups. The
architecture should consist of developer machines with VS 2013, at least one
test controller with test agents.
The test controller should be installed and configured with
a test account that will be used to login to the controller service. The test
controller manages a set of test agents to run tests. The test controller
communicates with test agents to start, stop and collect test execution result.
Similarly the agents runs as a service that listens for
requests from the test controller to start a new test. When a request is
received, the test agent service starts a process on which to run the tests.
Each test agent runs the same test. As part of agent configuration it is
important to register it with a controller.
To setup remote execution of tests from Visual Studio, you
need to add a new test settings file and set the test execution method to
'Remote execution'.
After setting the execution mode, now you can associate the
tests with a controller by managing controller and agents from the settings
window and start execution of the tests on the remote agent.
