Answer 1

Thanks for Hans Passant for guidance.

The solution is to use:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\CommonExtensions\Microsoft\TestWindow\vstest.console.exe

Answer 2

Another option is to install Catch2 which allows you to run the unit testing project as an exe from the command prompt and display the results:

https://github.com/catchorg/Catch2

C:\Projects\T9Predict\T9PredictTests\Debug\> T2PredictTests.exe
T2PredictTests.exe

C:\Projects\T9Predict\T9PredictTests\T2PredictTests.cpp(33): FAILED!
  REQUIRE( result[0] == "hello" )
with expansion:
  "" == "hello
