How to create the vsmdi/testrunconfig file when importing a Visual Studio test project?

Question

When I add an existing test project, my solution lacks the vsdmi and the testrunconfig files. How to create it?

Answer 1

The solution to this is a little tricky. You have to add a "New Item" to your solution, not your test project. In the "Add New Item" dialog, you can pick the "Test Run Configuration" category and then create the configuration file manually. This will also generate a vsdmi file.

Hope this helps.
