• Visual Studio Express Editions Need Help to get a third party class working

  I'm trying to use mstest.exe to run a test from the commandline. The test was created as a custom test type that I have created via the extensibility SDK. I've done a lot of investigation and here's the results: 1) inside VS I can run the custom test fine. 2) I can run the custom test fine using the /testcontainer: option of mstest.exe. 3) I can run a generic test using the same vsmdi file with mstest.exe. 4) trying to run the custom test type with the vsmdi fails with an "Test <foo> cannot be found" error. I ran scenarios 3 and 4 (only difference being generic test vs. my custom test) under cordbg. Here's t ...Show All
