In the DataCollector.md under using datacollector there is a sample xml how to use a custom datacollector

<RunSettings>
    <DataCollectionRunSettings>
        <DataCollectors>
            <DataCollector friendlyName="NewDataCollector" />
        </DataCollectors>
    </DataCollectionRunSettings>
</RunSettings>

The previous commandline arguments that are shown as an alternitive also contain /testadapterpath:<Path to DataCollector>, but there is no mention of the path in the .runsettings sample.

In the documentation in analize.md there the sample contains PathToDataCollector

  ... 
  <RunConfiguration>      
    <!-- Path to Test Adapters -->  
    <TestAdaptersPaths>PathToAdapters;PathToDataCollectors</TestAdaptersPaths>  
  </RunConfiguration> 
  ...

But there is the DataCollector also defined with an URI <DataCollector friendlyName="MyDataCollector1" uri="datacollector://MyCompany/MyDataCollector1/1.0">

Somewere else I also seen an attribute codebase.

What I currently don't understand is,

  • when do I need uri in addition to frindlyName,
  • can uri be whatever it want (as long as it is the same in the implemented datacollector) or does it need to start with datacollector:// (I've seen samples that started with my://)
  • Does PathToDataCollectors is the path to the DLL that contains the implemented datacollector or is it the Path to the folder containing the DLLs
