I have a Helper project H, with a config file that is to be used as a shared configSource file from other projects. The code in file (SharedConnectionString.config):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<connectionStrings>
<add name="myConn" connectionString="Data Source=MyServer;Initial Catalog=MyDb;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=Username; password=PW;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
I have a test project A that have it's own App.config and the SharedConnectionString.config added as file link
Config files in project A:
On the App.config I have:
<connectionStrings configSource="SharedConnectionStrings.config" />
Now, the test project compiles, the unit tests run successfully but the Live Unit Test feature from Visual Studio presents an error:
I tried the solution in here and here. None of there fixed the problem.
Opened an issue with Microsoft to see if help comes from somewhere..
