Using Microsoft.Rest.ClientRuntime.Azure.TestFramework

Getting Started

  • Install the latest Az.Resources from the PSGallery into Windows PowerShell
    • Run Windows PowerShell as administrator and execute following command
      • Install-Module -Name Az.Resources -Scope AllUsers -AllowClobber
  • Double click .\tools\PS-VSPrompt shortcut
    • This starts the VS Developer command prompt in PowerShell inside the azure-powershell/tools directory
  • Import the Repo-Tasks module that helps to perform basic repository tasks
    • Run the command Import-Module .\Repo-Tasks.psd1

Azure PowerShell TestFramework

Azure PowerShell repo now has its own test framework located under tools\TestFx, which supports recording all the HTTP requests from behind Azure PowerShell cmdlets and then playing them back.

The target framework of test is .Net Core 3.1, please ensure .Net runtime Microsoft.NETCore.App 3.1 is installed. You can list all installed version via dotnet --info.

Setup prior to Record or Playback of tests

In order to Record/Playback a test, you need to setup a connection string that consists of various key/value pairs that provide information to the test environment.

You have three options to set up the connection string:

New-TestCredential

This cmdlet, located in the Repo-Tasks module, which pulls in the TestFx-Tasks module and Build-Tasks module, will allow you to create a credentials file (located in C:/Users/\<currentuser\>/.azure/testcredentials.json) that will be used to set the environment variable when scenario tests are run. This credentials file will be used in all future sessions unless it is deleted or the environment variables are manually set. This cmdlet is not currently available for .NET SDK development.

Create New Service Principal

Using a service principal is the preferred option for recording tests because it works with both .NET Framework and .NET Core. In order to create a new service principal, run this command with an unused service principal display name:

New-TestCredential -ServicePrincipalDisplayName "ScenarioTestCredentials" -SubscriptionId `
<subscriptionId> -TenantId <tenantId> -RecordMode "Record"

This command will create a new service principal, set the correct role assignment for this service principal based upon the subscription provided, and place the service principal id and automatically generated secret into the credentials file.

Alternatively, to create a service principal, follow the Azure AD guide to create a Application Service Principal. The application type should be Web app / API and the sign-on URL value is irrelevant (you can set any value).

Use Existing Service Principal

If you would like to use an existing service principal, run this command with an existing service principal display name and secret:

New-TestCredential -ServicePrincipalDisplayName "Existing Service Principal" -ServicePrincipalSecret `
"testpassword" -SubscriptionId <subscriptionId> -TenantId <tenantId> -RecordMode "Record"

Set-TestEnvironment

This cmdlet, located in the Repo-Tasks module, will directly set the environment variable for the session.

Existing Service Principal

This is the preferred option for recording tests because it works with both .NET Framework and .NET Core.

Set-TestEnvironment -ServicePrincipalId <servicePrincipalId> -ServicePrincipalSecret `
"testpassword" -SubscriptionId <subscriptionId> -TenantId <tenantId> -RecordMode "Record"

Manually Set Environment Variables

Environment Variables

TEST_CSM_ORGID_AUTHENTICATION

  • This is the connection string that determines how to connect to Azure. This includes both your authentication and the Azure environment to connect to.

AZURE_TEST_MODE

  • This specifies whether the test framework will Record test sessions or Playback previously recorded test sessions.

Playback Test

The default test mode is Playback mode, so setting up the connection string is not required. You can optionally set environment variables:

TEST_CSM_ORGID_AUTHENTICATION=
AZURE_TEST_MODE=Playback

Record Test with service principal

After the service principal is created, you will need to give it access to Azure resources. This can be done with the following PowerShell command, with the Service Principal Application ID (this is a guid, not the display name of the service principal) substituted in for {clientId}.

New-AzRoleAssignment -ServicePrincipalName {clientId} -RoleDefinitionName Contributor

To use this option, set the following environment variable before starting Visual Studio. The following values are substituted into the below connection string:

clientId

clientSecret

tenantId

TEST_CSM_ORGID_AUTHENTICATION=SubscriptionId={SubId};ServicePrincipal={clientId};ServicePrincipalSecret={clientSecret};TenantId={tenantId};Environment={env};HttpRecorderMode=Record;
AZURE_TEST_MODE=Record

Record or Playback Tests

  • Run the tests and make sure that you got a generated .json file that matches the test name under the SessionRecords folder in the test project.
  • To assure that the records work fine, delete the connection string (default mode is Playback mode) OR change HttpRecorderMode within the connection string to "Playback" and run the tests

Change Test Environment settings at run-time

Once you set your connection string, you can add or update key/value settings

Add new key/value pair
TestEnvironment.ConnectionString.KeyValuePairs.Add("Foo", "FooValue");

Update Existing key/value pair
TestEnvironment.ConnectionString.KeyValuePairs["keyName"]="new value"

Accessing/Updating TestEndpoints
TestEnvironment.Endpoints.GraphUri = new Uri("https://newGraphUri.windows.net");

Note:

Changing the above properties at run-time has the potential to hard code few things in your tests. Best practice would be to use these properties to change values at run-time from immediate window at run-time and avoid hard-coding certain values.

Troubleshooting

Issue: exceptions in Microsoft.Azure.Test.HttpRecorder

Ensure that the HttpRecorderMode in the TEST_CSM_ORGID_AUTHENTICATION environment variable is consistent with the value in AZURE_TEST_MODE environment variable.

Environment = Custom

When specified, test framework expect all Uri's to be provided by the user as part of the connection string.

What is also supported is as below (connections string example) SubscriptionId=subId;Environment=Prod;AADAuthUri=customAuthUri;ResourceManagementUri=CustomResourceMgmtUri

Which translates to, all Uri from pre-defined Prod environment will be used, but AADAuthUri and ResourceManagementUri will be overridden by the one provided in the connection string
