I have created the Slave Simulator Application using Winforms and had to add the Unit Test Project to it.



I have added the Unit Test Project and also added the proper reference of my application.But when I run the test case, I am getting the error as " Program Does not Contain Static Main method suitable for entry point".I have changed Output type to "Windows Application" and there is a Program.cs(which includes main method) in my Application.



following is my Unit test project code I have written



public class UnitTest1
{
[TestMethod]
public void TestCoilUpdateOperation()
{
UpdateCoilsToDataStore testObject = new UpdateCoilsToDataStore();
bool actualStatus = testObject.UpdateCoils(UpdateCoilsToDataStore.TagName, UpdateCoilsToDataStore.ParameterNames, UpdateCoilsToDataStore.FunctionCode);
bool expectedStatus = true;
Assert.AreEqual(expectedStatus, actualStatus);
}
}


Can you please help me to resolve this problem.
Thanks.

    A unit test project isnt typically executable. It's a library, and you run the tests using a test runner, such as one built into VS.

Do not run the unit test project, it is class library project we can run test by test using Text Explorer instead of running whole project



Add Unit test project, from Test template



enter image description here



After creating unit test project, write your unit test.



[TestClass]
public class UnitTest1
{
[TestMethod]
public void TestMethod1()
{
//Your logic
Assert.AreEqual(1, 1);
}
}


Build your project, do not run it.



Now use your Text explorer to run particular test.
