Add support for Visual Studio 2017 RC

[jcansdale]

NOTE: TestDriven.Net will be installed for Visual Studio 2017 RC (Community, Professional and Enterprise in their default locations).

Workaround:

The following BAT file must be run as admin user. Change VS2017SKU to "Community", "Professional" or "Enterprise" (depending on which Visual Studio 2017 SKU you have installed).

set VS2017SKU=Community
set VS2017IDE=%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\%VS2017SKU%\Common7\IDE
set VS14IDE=%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\IDE
set TDEXT=Extensions\TestDriven
xcopy /S /I "%VS14IDE%\%TDEXT%" "%VS2017IDE%\%TDEXT%"
"%VS2017IDE%\devenv.exe" /updateConfiguration

Please subscribe to this issue for updates!

Thanks a lot. That worked.

I ran the command with a small modification on the last line:

set VS2017SKU=Enterprise
set VS2017IDE=%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\%VS2017SKU%\Common7\IDE
set VS14IDE=%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\IDE
set TDEXT=Extensions\TestDriven
xcopy /S /I "%VS14IDE%\%TDEXT%" "%VS2017IDE%\%TDEXT%"
"%VS2017IDE%\devenv.exe" /updateConfiguration

Oops, thanks for the fix! I've updated it above. I'm glad it worked (apart than that 😊).

In case anybody is having the same problem with the preview channel of VS2017, here's the same script to copy from VS2017 to VS2017 Preview:

set VS2017SKU=Enterprise
set VS2017IDE=%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\%VS2017SKU%\Common7\IDE
set VS2017PreviewIDE=%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio\Preview\%VS2017SKU%\Common7\IDE
set TDEXT=Extensions\TestDriven
xcopy /S /I "%VS2017IDE%\%TDEXT%" "%VS2017PreviewIDE%\%TDEXT%"
"%VS2017PreviewIDE%\devenv.exe" /updateConfiguration

@jcouv, thanks for the info! I didn't know about the preview channel. 😕

Is this it here?

I was interested to find a Team Explorer standalone install.

That looks like it, but I'm not sure. The installer (linked from the page you mentioned) installs in the same path as the installer I used (ie C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Preview\Enterprise).

The workaround worked great for me too!
