VectorCAST Test Explorer

Project Explorer Integration

Right-click any source file in the VS Code Project Explorer to create a VectorCAST test environment directly. No manual configuration required. The extension handles environment setup from the context menu, keeping the process quick and consistent.

Test Explorer Tree View

Every VectorCAST element – from test environments down to individual test cases – is represented as a node in an organized tree view. Context menus at each level let you create new tests, modify existing ones, and execute runs. Status icons give you an immediate read on test results without opening a separate report.

IntelliSense for Test Scripts

Full IntelliSense support is available when editing VectorCAST test script files inside VS Code. Auto-completions, hover-over hints, and immediate syntax error detection reduce authoring errors and accelerate test writing for developers who are new to VectorCAST scripting.

Integrated Test Debugging

Set up a VectorCAST-specific launch configuration with a single right-click, then debug failing tests using the standard VS Code Debugger. No manual debugger configuration required. Diagnosing test failures happens in the same environment where the code was written.

Inline Code Coverage

Statement coverage results from VectorCAST are displayed directly in the source editor using red and green gutter decorations, line by line. You can see exactly what your tests are and are not covering without switching to a separate coverage viewer or report.
