SharpDevelop 4.2 now has a new sample addin that adds integrated support for running tests with MSTest.

Features

Given the following code:

In the Unit Tests window the MS Tests will be displayed. The unit tests can be run by right clicking and selecting Run tests. The Unit Tests window will update to show the tests that passed and failed.

The output from the MS test runner (mstest.exe) will be displayed in the Output window.

Any test failures are displayed in the Errors window.

There is a default path defined for mstest.exe which points to the Visual Studio 2010 folder but you can alter this path from the Tools Options dialog under Tools - MS Test.

Note that running tests with the debugger or with code coverage does not work.

Full details on how the addin works can be found in the wiki.

Using the MSTest addin

To use the MSTest addin either follow the instructions in the wiki to build it from source or download the pre-built addin and register it with SharpDevelop using the Addin Manager by selecting AddIn Manager from the Tools menu.
