Issue
I have MSTest unit test cases which log into a SQL Server to verify information in the database. When I run the test from a command prompt on the Jenkins server, the test runs successfully. When I kick off a build which runs the same test, all test which access the database fail with an 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON' error.
Resolution
The build job was running on a windows agent machine where Jenkins was not running as a service.
Change the build agent to run Jenkins as a service and set up the service account which Jenkins is running under for the test to execute as expected.
