It’s a fact that coded web test methods give more flexibility to the developer, i.e. common code reuse. So let’s create a coded web test in whose GetRequestEnumerator() method you want to call a common method which tests some other requests. Let’s make it look as GetCommonRequests() in the example below:

public class AWebTest : WebTest
{
    private IEnumerator<WebTestRequest> GetCommonRequests()
    {
        WebTestRequest req1 = new WebTestRequest("http://google.com");
        yield return req1;

        WebTestRequest req2 = new WebTestRequest("http://google.com");
        yield return req2;
    }

    public override IEnumerator<WebTestRequest> GetRequestEnumerator()
    {
        WebTestRequest req = new WebTestRequest("http://google.com");
        yield return req;

        GetCommonRequests();
    }
}

You would expect to see three requests in the test result. You will see only one though…
