For some reason the help doesn’t explicitly state how this is accomplished, and some googling suggested that you need to go outside the IDE to instrument the native code.

This isn’t the case. With a Visual Studio 2005 solution consisting of:

  • a native .dll project
  • a .NET .dll project
  • an mstest project

Instrumentation can be enabled by editing the localtestrun.testrunconfig solution item. Look for the code coverage section and select the artifacts you want to instrument.

Caveat: the native binary will not be instrumented unless it is linked with the /PROFILE switch. There is no error message if you forget, it just silently fails to collect coverage for the .dll.
