You can integrate your test tools into custom test types that run alongside the built-in test types of Visual Studio Team System by implementing just a few classes. Integrating test tools lets developers and testers use the new test environment as a one-stop tool for running tests. Not only can organizations continue to use their existing test tools, but they also gain all the advantages of using the test environment of Visual Studio Team System. The following sections describe how to integrate your test tools as custom types into the test environment of Visual Studio Team System.
