Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.Execution Namespace

  • Article

The Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.Execution namespace provides classes and interfaces that enable, manage, and coordinate the execution of tests in Visual Studio Test Professional. This namespace includes the IDataCollector interface, which you use to create custom diagnostic data adapters to automatically execute tasks within test runs, and the ITestExecutionEnvironmentSpecifier, which lets you specify the environment settings for tests on remote machines.
