Right, you'll need VS Pro or above installed in order to have mstest.exe on the 
build server to be able to run tests.

It shouldn't work without MSTest.exe. From what I can tell, the TestContainer 
element resolves into the TestContainers property on 
Microsoft.Build.Tasks.TestToolsTask, 
Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.MSBuildTasks, Version=9.0.0.0. This type 
has a ToolName property that is used to execute the task for a tool.

        return "MSTest.exe";
    }

In 2008, I could be wrong, but I was pretty sure that both Team Dev and Pro 
allow editing of these.

Is this going to work without MSTest (installed by Pro and above) on the box?

If you specify the build to run "Test Lists" (*.vsmdi files) - these can only 
be authored/run in VS Team Test. So therefore it is required.

However, in 2008, Unit Testing was pushed into the VS Team Dev SKU.

To run unit tests on a Team Build server without the VS Team Test SKU, you have 
to use <TestContainers> and specify a pattern to match.

We use %2a instead of '*', so that it doesn't get expanded when it resolves the 
correct paths.

  <ItemGroup>
        <TestContainer Include="$(OutDir)\%2a.Tests.dll" />
  </ItemGroup>

Hi all,

The TFS 2008 install guide says that in order to get unit tests running as part 
of the build you must have VSTS test edition installed on the build server. 
Surely VSTS developer's edition would work too, yes?
