Running Universal Windows unit tests from the command line

Question

How do you run Universal Windows (UWP) unit test projects from the command line?

I am using the MSTestFramework.

Answer 1

If both Ivan Marinov's and Kylaa's answers didn't work for you (like unfortunately happened to me), try using the appxrecipe of the UWP test app as the target file, and not the appx itself.

For example:

vstest.console.exe testProject.build.appxrecipe /platform:x64
