Any call in my unit tests to either Debug.Write(line) or Console.Write(Line) simply gets skipped over while debugging and the output is never printed. Calls to these functions from within classes I'm using work fine. I understand that unit testing is meant to be automated, but I still would like to be able to output messages from a unit test. frennky Try using TestContext.WriteLine() which outputs text in test results. Example: [TestClass] public class UnitTest1 { private TestContext testContextInstance; /// <summary> /// Gets or sets the test context which provides /// information about and

I was under the impression that the test methods in a unit test class would be executed in the order that they appear in the class file. Apparently this is not true. It also doesn't appear to be purely based off of alphabetical order either. How does MSTEST decide execution order? EDIT: I was able to track down the answer after digging a bit. See below. I was able to track down the answer. According to Microsoft employee Guillermo Serrato : MSTest executes all tests synchronously, the order is nondeterministic beetleaz This is actually simply to do: use this link How to: Create an Ordered Test
