Regression Suite Automation Tool

Hi 

Has anyone worked with Regression Suite Automation Tool. 

I am not able to run the tool from my local machine to run the test on environment. I am getting the below error message:

MS.Dynamics.TestTools.CloudCommonTestUtilities.Exceptions.WebAuthenticationException: Failed finding the certificate for minting tokens by thumbprint: XXXXXXXXXXXXX.

Though, if i installed the tools on the server itself and run it, it is working fine. 

Anyone can help, if it is possible to run the test from my local machine? Or how can i solve this out?

Thanks

    You need to generate self signed certificate, it could be done manually as described in documentation www.microsoft.com/.../details.aspx or using d365tools github.com/.../functions

    Thanks for your feedback.

    I created the signature needed described in the manual. But this is not working.

    On my local machine > created a new certificate > toke that thumpprint pasted it as below inside "wif.config" of the server hosting the Dynamics application.

    But still same issue.

    <authority name="CN=127.0.0.1">

    <keys>            

    <add thumbprint="ccbc124d0a119xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx841e797" />

    </keys>

    <validIssuers>

    <add name="CN=127.0.0.1" />

    </validIssuers>

    </authority>

    Hi,

    I have done exactly the same steps. But still same issue. Test Case Fails and in VSTS i am getting this error message:

    No... The only way is to install it on same system where AX is installed.

    Otherwise, it will never access the link.

    Though, MS mentioned, you can install it to any machine has internet access.

    I see that you have "pasted" the thumbprint into wif.config. There's is a problem with copy-n-paste from the certificated dialog. The dialog is unicode enabled and that doesn't work very well when pasting the value.

    You can use a command prompt to list a thumbprint that is suitable for copy-n-paste.

    Use "certutil -store my" for the machine certificates. The thumbprint can be located in the line that starts with "Cert Hash(sha1)".

    Another workaround is to paste the thumbprint to a new Notepad file, save the txt file, reopen the text file and then copy the thumbprint from there.

    Just ran in to the same issue myself.

    The solution for me was:

    1. Generate new certificates:
      • makecert -n "CN=127.0.0.1" -ss Root -sr LocalMachine -a sha256 -len 2048 -cy end -r -eku 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.1 -sv c:\temp\authcert.pvk c:\temp\authcert.cer
      • pvk2pfx -pvk c:\temp\authCert.pvk -spc c:\temp\authcert.cer -pfx c:\temp\authcert.pfx
    2. Install the pfx on the computer where you run the tool under localmachine\my
    3. Get the certificate thumbprint by running the following PS command:
      • get-childitem cert:\localmachine\my
    4. Update/add the new thumbprint in the wif.config and restart IIS also make sure you update thumbprint in your settings for the tool.

    Hope this helps.
