Can you specify the order of test execution in VS 2005 test box?

I'm using the provided Unit Test Engine in Visual Studio 2005 and wondering if there is a way to specify the order of the tests. I have numerous test classes and numerous test methods inside each. I would like to control the order in which the test classes are executed and the order of the test methods in each.

you can use Ordered Tests

Why? In fact, tests are supposed to work alone. If you need to execute any specific code before running your test, you should have this in your test class:

//Use TestInitialize to run code before running each test
[TestInitialize()]
public void MyTestInitialize()
{
}

//Use TestCleanup to run code after each test has run
[TestCleanup()]
public void MyTestCleanup()
{
}


I don't think the order in which your test is executed should matter. But if you really need to order a link from Matthew White's side.
