run tests in mstest without compiling/building

Question

is there a way? do I have to wait for building every time I start the test? I want to build from visual studio not from test

thanks

Answer 1

Any changes to source code cause compilation, because in order to run tests VS needs up to date DLL with tests.

If you have already compiled project then you can run test multiple times without compilation.

PS: I run MSTest using TestDriven.NET as for me it is faster.
