Unit testing functionality not available in dotCover integration in Visual Studio

Question

How to run unit tests and use other unit testing features when there's only dotCover 2025.2 installed in Visual Studio?

Answer

To use unit testing features, install ReSharper in Visual Studio as well. Installation steps are described here: Installation guide.

Previously, unit testing functionality was provided by both ReSharper and dotCover. Starting with the 2025.2 release, it is provided only by ReSharper. All capabilities for unit test coverage analysis remain fully supported; unit testing simply requires ReSharper to be installed.

In cases where only dotCover was installed before and there are performance concerns about adding ReSharper, install ReSharper and disable all features except Unit Testing and dotCover in ReSharper | Options | Environment | Products & Features.
