The .TRX file extension stands for Visual Studio Test Results File and is a report file type generated by the Microsoft Visual Studio integrated development environment (IDE) and related software testing programs. It contains results of the test execution, and includes test progress, error, and failure data as well as a stack trace to indicate the exact line of code where the test failed or errored out. This allows Visual Studio users to review tests and diagnose issues within their project quickly.
TRX files are in an open format and work with a wide range of Microsoft Visual Studio software, like CodedUI tests, the Microsoft Unit Testing framework, and third-party unit testing tools. Depending on their settings, TRX files can save information from each test case such as its name, state (passed/failed), duration, and owner. Furthermore, it enables developers to differentiate between tests with identical names across classes.
Related File Types
The TRX file extension is related to other file types such as .BIN, .COV, VSDEBUGOUT, VIG, VSLG, and VSMAP. All of these file types are designed for sequence or debugging information related to various Visual Studio projects.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .TRX) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .TRX extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .TRX file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .TRX extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .TRX extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .TRX file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .TRX file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .TRX file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .TRX file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .TRX file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
