In your Test class, add the reference to : System.Configuration; => using System.Configuration;

For example you could use your connectionString by this way :

[TestFixture]
public class CommandesDALUnitTest
{

    private string _connectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionString"].ConnectionString;

    [Test]
    public void Method_Test()
    {
        string test = _connectionString;
            ....
    }
}
