So I was able to resolve the issue.

  1. Go to the top menu > select project> Build> build solution

  2. the build is successful go to step 3

  3. The Go into the search box with the spy glass logo and type 'test explorer'

  4. In test explorer you have the choice of 2 ways to run:

    • the small green triangle will run ALL tests
    • the large green triangle will your chosen test only.

  5. Select from option 4 and run your test.
