    Filtering by Test Category in the Visual Studio Test Runner

    "

    The built in Visual Studio is quite limited, but it has a bit more functionality than it first appears.

    To filter the test list by a given category, enter the following filter in the search bar of the test runner:

    Trait:"UITest"

    Visual studio test runner with a filter to only include a given test category

    If you instead want to exclude a test category from the list, i.e. show all test which do NOT have the category, prefix the filter with a dash:

    -Trait:"UITest"

    These kinds of filters can be combined by simply appending one after another, separated by spaces:

    -Trait:"UITest" -Trait:"DatabaseTest"
