Test Deployment

The test engine runs tests in a separate deployment folder. It does not run them in the folder in which you have created or generated them.

Before the test engine runs a test, it copies all the files that are required for the test to the deployment folder. You can change these deployment items; for more information, see How to: Configure Test Deployment.
