Analyzing Test Results

When you run tests, results are automatically generated, saved to disk, and displayed in the Test Results window. For most test types, you can also obtain more in-depth results, such as code-coverage data.

Test results are also saved to your computer's hard disk when you run tests. If your team is using a Team Foundation Server team project to help manage its work, you can also publish test results; after publication, they can be merged with other data and used in reports.

This section of the documentation describes how to view test results both quickly and in-depth, and how to save, retrieve, delete, and publish them.
