Driving Unit Tests from Cloud Load Test

This post details how to drive unit tests from Visual Studio Cloud Load Test, enabling performance and capacity insights for services beyond web pages. It explains how to create a Load Test project, add unit tests to the load test for specific scenarios, and run these tests from Visual Studio Online. A key enhancement is the integration with Application Insights (new with Visual Studio Update 3) to collect performance counters and production data, addressing the challenge of accessing machines running the application under test in cloud-based load testing solutions.
