mstest

Basically I would like to tell MSTest to execute a bit of code before launching into a series of test runs, essentially what I would like to do is the same thing as sticking some code in Main() . The reason I would like to do this is that I would like to do some logging with log4net during my integration test runs. I cannot just use the log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator assembly attribute since by the time it reads it in my test assembly it has already called LoggerManager . The documentation recommends configuring log4net explicitly at the code entry point - but where is that in my tests? I need

I have been getting used to OpenCover over the past few days, and have I noticed that tests using Moles do not generate any Coverage information. I have created a small solution to isolate the problem, and have found that code coverage is generated only for tests that do not have the [HostType("Moles")] attribute.
