Running API tests is not possible

But just now .... I tried it again and the tests succeeded. Case closed.

@jimmymcp any thoughts on this?

Hi Luc, sorry I haven't investigated this yet because I never use Windows auth in my containers. I think it just requires the ALTestRunner PowerShell to not pass any credentials to the Run-TestsInBCContainer function in bccontainerhelper.

Might be true, but surely, as mentioned there "should not have any user related data in the database" and as "AL Test Runner forces the creation of a user" this is an issue.

Strictly, AL Test Runner doesn't create a user in the container. It does prompt you to enter credentials, expecting that you are using NavUserPassword authentication in the container. I can probably check the authentication that is being used in the container before prompting you to enter credentials. But probably not this week.

No problem.

BTW: I guess you are right that "AL Test Runner doesn't create a user in the container". But I am quite sure that last week I saw a line in the AL Test Runner log on creating a user.
