After recording process addWorker and built the model, there is a running error: "Microsoft.Dynamics.TestTools.Dispatcher.Exceptions.DispatcherException: Could not attach to form: no open form with name 'Essentialsdashboard'."

As user option the initial page is "Essentials dashboard".

What more must be defined?

Thanks for help!

You started recording with "Essentials dashboard" already open but it's not open when running the test, right?

How could it be, the test starts in VS or may on built server? Not sure what you mean.

Unfortunately you didn't answer my question, but I'll assume I'm right. I think you're talking about a UI test generated from task recording, which you started from a running form and therefore the test now expects the form running and tries to use it. As you see, it won't work. Create a new recording or modify the generated test code by hand.

In your own interest, please get use to explaining your questions in details, so we don't have to guess what you need.

Each recording leads to the same error, some page where you started from is not open. Same if the applicaton runs on the page. My expectation wouldn't be, that code has to be manualy corrected.

I'm using Update6, selected all the form adaptor model referencies and checked "create form adaptors" of project properties. Finally couldn't find any generated classes.

If it's true that you've recorded your tests correctly, the problem must be in how the tests are generated. In that case, create a support request with Microsoft.

If you say that no test classes were generated, how you can they throw errors? :-)

Of course the test class is there, but not the form adaptors, which in fact are not generated if also checked on model property. Dont know if they are needed just for executing and simulating the open form. May I try with the newest Update.

If you tests use a form, they need do an adaptor for it.

1. If You are trying to create new FormAdaptor classes make sure you are not getting bellow error in Output at the time of Build of your Project in VS(Form adapter classes should be generated successfully at the time of Build and then you can access your FormAdaptorclasses ):-

Dynamics AX build step: Generate form adaptors started.

Unable to generate form adaptors. Error = System.Exception: Cannot generate form adaptors for model "Your_Model". No model exists with Form Adaptor Source model pointing to this model.

at Microsoft.Dynamics.Framework.Tools.BuildTasks.AsyncBuildController.DoFormAdaptorGeneration(CancellationToken token, IEnumerable`1 elements, BuildTrigger buildTrigger, IFormAdaptorGenerator formAdaptorGenerator).

Dynamics AX build step: Generate form adaptors completed (27 ms).

2. If You record Test Case by TaskRecorder and You download the code and Import in VS, then there is 4 lines form closing auto generated code in TestMethod , remove that code and Build the Project and run or debug the test case again, it will work.

There where no error on build and as I see no lines to remove.

Recorded a simple create worker, the error is on line

using (var c1 = c.attach(formStr(Essentialsdashboard)))

This line needs to be added above:

EssentialsdashboardFormAdaptor::open();

Strange now, that it complains about fields readOnly at this line:

HcmWorkerForm.HcmWorkerTitle_OfficeLocation().setValue(HcmWorker_HcmWorkerTitle_OfficeLocation);

But the office location is an open field. What's the reason?

Thanks.

Auto declaration of this field should be "Yes".
