Exposing a Custom Control to Coded UI Tests - WinForms

I wrote my own custom control in WinForms. It's actually works like a TextBox, but have other methodes and extra properties that I wrote.

I tried writing a very simple coded UI test for this control but faild. Every Time I select it with the Coded UI Test Builder it is shown as "Client" and not as a textbox. I cannot read or write to the text property of this control, or get or set other properties.

Do you know how do I expose my custom control for testing, and getting and setting all of it properties?

It is difficult to answer the question without looking at your implementation of the custom control but you can use the following link to learn how to extend a treeview control to make it code UI enabled.

I used that example to learn how to extend my own controls.
