Is there any .runsettings documentation?

Runsettings (VS2012) are similar to testsettings (VS2010) where testsettings is specific to tests written for MSTest. VS2012 supports settings for different adapters. As such, the schema isn't a closed system so an XSD would not be comprehensive.
This MSDN article lists some high level details (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj635153.aspx) for the elements in the runsettings file.
Here's a snippet from that article.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RunSettings>
<!-- Configurations that affect the Test Framework -->
<RunConfiguration>
<MaxCpuCount>1</MaxCpuCount>
<!-- Path relative to solution directory -->
<ResultsDirectory>.\TestResults</ResultsDirectory>
<!-- [x86] | x64
- You can also change it from menu Test, Test Settings, Default
Processor Architecture -->
<TargetPlatform>x86</TargetPlatform>
<!-- Framework35 | [Framework40] | Framework45 -->
<TargetFrameworkVersion>Framework40</TargetFrameworkVersion>
<!-- Path to Test Adapters -->
<TestAdaptersPaths>%SystemDrive%\Temp\foo;%SystemDrive%\Temp\bar</TestAdaptersPaths>
</RunConfiguration>
<!-- Configurations for data collectors -->
<DataCollectionRunSettings>
<DataCollectors>
<DataCollector friendlyName="Code Coverage" uri="datacollector://Microsoft/CodeCoverage/2.0" assemblyQualifiedName="Microsoft.VisualStudio.Coverage.DynamicCoverageDataCollector, Microsoft.VisualStudio.TraceCollector, Version=11.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a">

<ModulePaths>
<Exclude>
<ModulePath>.*CPPUnitTestFramework.*</ModulePath>
</Exclude>
</ModulePaths>
</CodeCoverage>
</Configuration>
</DataCollector>
</DataCollectors>
</DataCollectionRunSettings>
<!-- Parameters used by tests at runtime -->
<TestRunParameters>
<Parameter name="webAppUrl" value="http://localhost" />
<Parameter name="webAppUserName" value="Admin" />
<Parameter name="webAppPassword" value="Password" />
</TestRunParameters>
<!-- Adapter Specific sections -->
<!-- MSTest adapter -->
<MSTest>
<MapInconclusiveToFailed>True</MapInconclusiveToFailed>
<CaptureTraceOutput>false</CaptureTraceOutput>
<DeleteDeploymentDirectoryAfterTestRunIsComplete>False</DeleteDeploymentDirectoryAfterTestRunIsComplete>
<DeploymentEnabled>False</DeploymentEnabled>
<AssemblyResolution>
<Directory Path>"D:\myfolder\bin\" includeSubDirectories="false"/>
</AssemblyResolution>
</MSTest>
</RunSettings>

I found further information on runsettings (specific to code coverage) here:

I'm looking for documentation for .runsettings files as used with vstest. Is there an xsd?
I can't seem to find much except for a few example files in the msdn documentation.

bryanbcook about 8 yearsThe link wasn't broken for me. I've added a snippet from that page for future reference.

AssemblyResolution
Directory thepath
property must be lower case! Thats the important clue.
