How to make a test method Does not start in Visual Studio Unit Test

Question

How to make verification method not executed in Visual Studio Unit Test? using Visual Studio 2010 with .NET 4.0.

Suppose I have 10 test methods, of which 1 test method does not work due to external dependencies. If I want to run all 10, I will get an error in one test.

One solution: Do not run the test. But I need to know if there are any attributes or something like that that just bypasses the test and it will not run.

I tried with the [WorkItem(1234)] attribute, but still the test is running.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Yes, you can add the Ignore attribute to the test you want to skip:

 [TestMethod, Ignore] public void ThisTestWontRun() { // Test code here }
