Setting Up Your Test Run Sequence Using Ordered Tests

An ordered test contains other tests that are meant to be run in a specified order. An ordered test is displayed as a single test in the Test List Editor and in the Test View window. Its results appear in a single row in the Test Results window, but you can obtain individual results for each test that was run as a part of the ordered test.

The following table specifies the requirements to create ordered tests:

Visual Studio Ultimate	Visual Studio Premium	Visual Studio Professional	Visual Studio Express
