I see in VSTS 2012 .trx file not generated which is a new feature. :)
We can generate the same by using commands, It's OK.
Where i can view the old test run failed results if i am not using commands to generate .trx files?
Lets say I have ran 10 test cases for the 1st time, and 2 test cases for the scond time. Once 2nd Run is completed, nopw where i can find the 1st run results... :(
Atleast it should show somewhere in Test Explorer?!

I am a huge fan of microsoft products but not for this VSTS 2012 as it is not user friendly when coming to Test Execution.

Details (expand)

Visual Studio 2012

Run 10 Test cases in Test Explorer for the 1st time.
Run 2 Test cases in Test Explorer for the 2nd time.
Look for Previous 1st run results.

Prashanth Reddy A,

Thanks for this valuable feedback. The Test Explorer has been optimized around a more frequent test running pattern. As a result the experience for viewing results from old test runs is not optimal. We will take your feedback under advisement when investigating future changes to the Test Explorer. Thanks for helping to make Visual Studio better.

Thanks,
Joshua Weber
