Microsoft Test Controllers and Agents – where’s the CD???

  • Article

If you’re setting up a test environment for the new Microsoft test products, sometimes the MSDN documentation mentions a prerequisite of the “Microsoft Visual Studio Agents” CD.

But on many of the pages there’s no reference to where you’d find that CD or from where you’d download the CD or ISO image.

So if you’re looking for the Agents CD, a link to the download really does exist. It’s even on the overview page “Installing and Configuring Visual Studio Agents and Test and Build Controllers” https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd648127.aspx). But the link isn’t highlighted very well. It’s just buried in a paragraph on that good, but very long page.

Here’s the link to the Agents download page: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=200373

Happy testing!
