No, you do not need it IF you do not need them. But…
Still do it 😉 There is a lot of third party stuff that may rely on Visual Studio to exist. On top, some of the Visual studio PROJECT TYPES are not supported WITHOUT Visual Studio (like database projects).
I am not sure about unit testing and coded UI tests…. I think those are part of the visual studio setup, so you have to actually install it to have them available.
