    copied!<p>I am having an issue when starting the tests under debug mode in Visual Studio 2008 Team Test where it gives the following error:</p> <p>"Failed to queue test run '{user@machinename}': Object reference not set to an instance of an object."</p> <p>I googled for the error but no joy. Don't even understand what it means as it is too brief. Has anyone come across this? </p> <p>Note that I can run tests fine if I am not debugging and I get the same error irrespective of the test I run.</p> <p>Thank you,</p> <p>Swati</p> <p>ETA:</p> <p>Being new to Visual Studio Team Test, I didn't know there was a better exception log then what I was seeing. Anyhow, here it is:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Exception&gt; System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.TestCaseManagement.QualityToolsPackage.
