Microsoft.Build.RunVSTest

The Microsoft.Build.RunVSTest MSBuild SDK adds support for running tests from MSBuild, similarly to how one would use dotnet test.

Note: this SDK defers to the built-in test mechanism when using dotnet and simply sets $(UseMSBuildTestInfrastructure) to true. This SDK is primarily intended for scenarios which use msbuild.exe, the Visual Studio flavor of MSBuild. When using dotnet, you can already do dotnet msbuild /t:Build;Test /p:UseMSBuildTestInfrastructure=true (or set the property in Directory.Build.props) to get this behavior.

Usage

In Directory.Build.props:

  <Sdk Name="Microsoft.Build.RunVSTest" Version="1.0.0" />

Alternately, if all projects in the repo support packages references, in Directory.Packages.props:

<Project>
  <ItemGroup>
    <GlobalPackageReference Include="Microsoft.Build.RunVSTest" Version="1.0.0" />
  </ItemGroup>
</Project>

Then to run tests:

msbuild /t:Test

Or build and run tests

msbuild /t:Build;Test

Note that running build and tests together in a single MSBuild invocation can be significantly faster than building and then in serial running tests after.

Extensibility

Setting the following properties control how the SDK works.

Property Description
VSTestToolExe Overrides the exe name for vstest. By default, vstest.console.exe is used.
VSTestToolPath Overrides which directory in which to look for the vstest tool. By default, the SDK looks in %VSINSTALLDIR%\Common7\IDE\CommonExtensions\Microsoft\TestWindow\

There are also various properties which map to VSTest.Console command-line options.
