This chapter explained about editing the test configuration using the configuration editor supported by Visual Studio 2012. There are multiple configuration options for different types of tests. This chapter also explained the new runsettings file for unit testing. This file was introduced in Visual Studio 2012 and can be edited like a normal XML file. There are multiple adapters and data collectors that can be specified in the runsettings file, to collect diagnostic data information and code coverage data during testing.

The next chapter explains the command-line commands and the tools to run and publish the tests without using the Visual Studio IDE. Command-line instructions are very useful in scheduling tests and running the tests in batch.
