I actually am running into a problem with this. When I run my tests, it says
they have all failed, as if there is a boolean issue somewhere. Also, I
can't seem to find out how the visual studio project "check" runs the tests.
I looked in post build events, but I see nothing. Where and how is it
evoking the tests? When I look at the post build events in Visual Studio
2008 for the RUN_TESTS project, the command to execute the tests is in the
post build event section.
