As far as I know we can Run automated tests from test plans on Windows agent by using "vstest". Do we have any support/ way to run automated tests from test plans on Linux boxes?
As per azure doc: To run automated tests from test plans, we would need "vstest" to be installed on agent box. However, since we are using Linux box - do we have any alternative?
You can see this doc:
The reason for why you are facing the error after run the Visual Studio Test Agent Deployment task, is the OS of the agent you are using does not meet its requirement.
Until now, we only support the Windows-based machines for this task:
Also, we have hardcode this requirement into our task definition. This means there's no any work around can for you use if the agent you want to use is Ubuntu. Because we has script to firstly check the environment, to see whether it meets the requirements of the task.
You can raise a suggestion request on our official forum to expand this feature into Azure Devops. Our PM would review it and kindly to consider to take it into our develop roadmap.
