c# - Attach Visual Studio debugger to VS IDE Host -

i trying test application using visual studio 2015 shell (isolated).

for testing extension package visual studio, found samples older versions. this:

[testmethod] [hosttype("vs ide")] public void createvisualization() {     testutils testutils = new testutils();     testutils.closecurrentsolution(__vsslnsaveoptions.slnsaveopt_nosave);     testutils.createprojectfromtemplate(testcontext.testdir, "myprojecttype", "myprojecttype.zip");     testutils.closecurrentsolution(__vsslnsaveoptions.slnsaveopt_nosave); } 

my problem can not debug tests, because debugger not attach vs ide host process. once, remove hosttype-annotation, can set breakpoints , debug it, test not run inside correct process. verified attaching not work, writing endless-loop inside test , manually attaching started process (which enable debugging).

is there way automatically attach visual studio debugger started process upon starting test, can debug without manual "attach process"-step?

edit:

i've tried several solutions, nothing worked far:

• how host vs ide during integration test via mstest? started visual studio not application
• visual studio: auto attach process when process spawned had mixed results. debugger.launch works, still requires tedious "select debugger ..." dialog accepted
• microsoft's own suggested way automatically attach debugger not work, launches jit-debugger when starting application, not when running (and debugging) tests.

if want set debugger auto attach on process start, can use registry editor, not convenient:

a simple way use tool wrote eyal rosner here:

it easy set registry editor.
