Method not found while running tests using MTM.

Question

Test method SupportSoft.RequestAssist.TestScenarios.TestSecnario.ValidatingAttachingFileRequestByUser threw exception: System.MissingMethodException: Method not found: 'Void SupportSoft.CommonUtilities.GUIInteraction.ImplicitWaitForElement(OpenQA.Selenium.IWebDriver,
System.String, System.String)'.
I am getting "System.MissingMethodException" for the scenarios which are using "ImplicitWaitForElement" method. The test case is passing in my machine and any other machine if we use the latest tfs created build of our automation code.
But when we trigger run from MTM, this issue is seen.
Please help me out here.
Thanks and Regards,
Payal Prajapati.

Hi Payal,
>>The test case is passing in my machine and any other machine if we use the latest tfs created build of our automation code.
According to your description, you mean that when you run the automated test method from Test Explorer in the VS IDE, it works fine, am I right?
If yes, as you said the error message:
>>I am getting "System.MissingMethodException" for the scenarios which are using "ImplicitWaitForElement" method.
I suggest you could try to check if you associated with the automated test method in the MTM by opening your test case and then select the ASSCIATED AUTOMATION tab check if associated the automated test method.
(1) If the it is blank in the ASSCIATED AUTOMATION tab , I assume that you did not associated with the automated test method into the MTM, so I suggest you could try to associated with the automated test method in the MTM and then check this issue again.
About how to automated test method into a test case for the MTM,
please refer to the following steps:
1: You can create a test case from MTM and then you can input the test case ID and then press the Enter like the following screen shot.
2: After the test case edit window is opened, you can select the ASSOCIATED AUTOMATION option to open this Choose Test Window, and then associated the
automate test method.

(2)  If you could see the automated test method in ASSCIATED AUTOMATION tab from MTM like my screen shot, please try to copy this automated test case to Test Agent machine and then check if you can run it successfully.
