Visual Studio 2010 Test Controller Test Database Test Error?

Question

I am trying to install Visual Studio 2010 agents for test controllers / testing agents so that I can create Load Tests on my local machine. When I try to install a test controller, I get the following message in the configuration summary

From the installation log I found the following error messages: The existing connection string for controller MyComputerName:6901 is {this is blank} 

System.MissingMethodException: method not found: 'Boolean Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.WebStress.LoadTestDatabaseCounterWriter.IsDatabaseUpgradeFromRTMNeeded (System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection). at Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.ConfigCore.TestControllerHelper.CreateAndUpgradeLoadTestSchemaIfRequired (String loadTestConnectionString, String directoryContainingSchemaFile) at Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestPonfectPlucDatpluentprocesslecontrolpreterplucdpluentpluentpluentpluentpluentprocesspluaterpluaterpluaterpluater

 Failed to configure load test database. 

Answer 1

The problem is solved!

In short, only Visual Studio 2010 Service Pack 1 is missing, and the DLL does not contain a method that is called using the test controller configuration tool.

Solution: Install Windows 2010 Service Pack 1 (SP1).
Reason: Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.LoadTest.DLL does not contain a database validation method that is called by the configuration tool, so an exception is thrown and the configuration does not work. After upgrading to SP1, the DLL is updated successfully, and the missing method can be found there.
