For those of you who haven't been following the betas, Visual Studio 2005 contains a new project template for testers - the
Test Project template. This project type allows you to create unit tests, web tests, and load tests (which can include unit and web tests side by side). The test project will compile into a dll.
VSTS has an excellent user interface for managing and running the tests, however I need a way to run the tests easily and on a regular basis from outside of the IDE: mstest.exe is the answer. This should be very easy to incorporate into an automated test system, since mstest can output the results in xml format.
