In the last 2 weeks or so, I have given a helping hand to Jonathan Wilkins with the MSpec Visual Studio adapter project. My initial main focus was to get the adapter nuget ready, so that it can be used in Visual Studio Online (now Team Services) seamlessly. I have also set-up a CI environment in AppVeyor.

If the udpated Visual Studio extensions is not live yet at the time you read this blog post - you can grab it from the GitHub release: https://github.com/machine-visualstudio/machine.vstestadapter/releases/tag/v1.7.0

Release notes below. If you are curious what is potentially cooking in the next 1.8.0 relase - you can look here: https://github.com/machine-visualstudio/machine.vstestadapter/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+milestone%3A1.8.0
