From reasons I won’t get into, all our unit tests are using the VSTS test framework. I now want to create an MSBuild script that runs the tests, but I don’t want to use mstest.exe from various reasons (it’s slower, requires Visual Studio installation everywhere, I need to maintain testrunconfig, etc.)
I’ve seen that TestDriven.net and TeamCity are able to run VSTS tests ‘NUnit style’, without using mstest.exe. Are you aware of any standalone command line utility that does this?
You can execute Team System Tests (MSTest) in NUnit if you use a special NUnit Addin that recognizes the MS Test Attributes (TestClass, etc).
Exact Magic Software has an open-source “test-adapter” that can do this.
UPDATE: I’ve reworked Exact Magic’s Msts NUnit Adapter for NUnit 2.5.2.
