Unable to find Amazon.Lambda.TestTool.WebTester31.dll

[pmihalcin]

The Question

I'm following https://github.com/aws/aws-lambda-dotnet/blob/master/Tools/LambdaTestTool/README.md
and I successfully installed dotnet tool install -g Amazon.Lambda.TestTool-3.1

Now I would like to find Amazon.Lambda.TestTool.WebTester31.dll
https://github.com/aws/aws-lambda-dotnet/blob/master/Tools/LambdaTestTool/README.md#configure-for-jetbrains-rider
but I don't have any .store folder under ~/.dotnet/tools
The only thing I have in ~/.dotnet/tools is dotnet-lambda-test-tool-3.1

Please note I'm on Ubuntu

Is there anything else I should do?

Thanks for any help

Hi @pmihalcin,

Thanks for posting the guidance question. You are correct, I was unable to find Amazon.Lambda.TestTool.WebTester31.dll on both Windows and Mac terminal after installing the test tool using command dotnet tool install -g Amazon.Lambda.TestTool-3.1.

• Mac terminal path: /Users/<<username>>/.dotnet/tools/.store/amazon.lambda.testtool-3.1/0.11.3/amazon.lambda.testtool-3.1/0.11.3/tools/netcoreapp3.1/any
• Windows path: <<drive:>>\Users\<<username>>\.dotnet\tools\.store\amazon.lambda.testtool-3.1\0.11.3\amazon.lambda.testtool-3.1\0.11.3\tools\netcoreapp3.1\any

I will get in touch with development team and get back to you on this.

EDIT: @pmihalcin I noticed the following:

• When I explicitly install Lambda Test tool 3.1 with version less than 0.11.0 (e.g. 0.10.1) using command dotnet tool install --global Amazon.Lambda.TestTool-3.1 --version 0.10.1, I do see the file Amazon.Lambda.TestTool.WebTester31.dll under /Users/<<username>>/.dotnet/tools/.store/amazon.lambda.testtool-3.1/0.10.1/amazon.lambda.testtool-3.1/0.10.1/tools/netcoreapp3.1/any.
• I also notice that there is a note in Readme Note: if using the .NET Core Mock Lambda Test Tool 3.1 version 0.11.0, you will need to use the BlazorTester DLL (Amazon.Lambda.TestTool.BlazorTester.dll) and set the Exe path to the full path of the BlazorTester DLL.. So looks like for version 0.11.0 (or later), we need to use Amazon.Lambda.TestTool.BlazorTester.dll.

Could you use this DLL as the Executable Path in JetBrains Rider and let me know if it works?

Thanks,
Ashish

@ashishdhingra I uninstalled version 0.11.3 and installed 0.10.1

dotnet tool uninstall --global Amazon.Lambda.TestTool-3.1
dotnet tool install --global Amazon.Lambda.TestTool-3.1 --version 0.10.1

and I still don't see any .store folder and dotnet-lambda-test-tool-3.1 is the only binary I see in ~/.dotnet/tools

@pmihalcin The .store folder is the hidden folder, you can simply navigate to it:

For the latest version of tool, you may try using Amazon.Lambda.TestTool.BlazorTester.dll as per Note in the Readme.

Oh yeah, my bad. Thanks a lot, I somehow haven't realized that ls output doesn't contain hidden folders by default. Now I can see it.

@pmihalcin In case the issue is resolved, please let me know let me know if this could be closed.

It is working now.

How to for future self:

• dotnet tool install --global Amazon.Lambda.TestTool-3.1 --version 0.11.3

• set Exe path field in .NET Executable run configuration to /home/.../.dotnet/tools/.store/amazon.lambda.testtool-3.1/0.11.3/amazon.lambda.testtool-3.1/0.11.3/tools/netcoreapp3.1/any/Amazon.Lambda.TestTool.BlazorTester.dll + replace ... with your username

• set the Working directory field to the .NET Core Lambda project root
