问题
I want to execute visual studio unit tests without installing visual studio . To achieve this , I made some registry changes and copied the dll's required in a folder with MSTest.exe file . But when I try to execute the test using a command line "mstest /noisolation /testcontainer:TestProject1.dll" it showing the below error.
C:\Tools\mstest>mstest /noisolation /testcontainer:TestProject1.dll

You need to include Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UITesting.dll.
