MSTest output result to HTML

MSTest generates trx (xml) files which can be viewed in Visual Studio. But often you will be executing MSTest from the command line via your Continuous Integration (CI) server and you will want to view them in an html format outside Visual Studio.

trx2html to the rescue!

• download the zip file here - http://trx2html.codeplex.com/
• unzip and put the files somewhere
• I choose C:\Program Files (x86)\trx2html
• execute it from the command line 

# in YourTestProject\bin\Release
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\mstest.exe" /testcontainer:YourTestProject.dll /resultsfile:TestResult.trx

"C:\Program Files (x86)\trx2html\0.6\trx2html.exe" TestResult.trx
# outputs TestResult.trx.htm
