If Using .Net Core:

dotnet test ./nameoftest.dll

In the folder where the test is located.

For command line options see: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tools/dotnet-test

I got the answer from this thread: https://gist.github.com/leniel/2438148

Just run the following command to run test cases by using MSTest /testcontainer

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\TestAgent\Common7\IDE>MSTest /testcontainer:"C:\project-name\projectTestSolutionFolder\bin\Release\ProjectTest.dll"

This is detailed on MSDN: How to: Run Automated Tests from the Command Line Using MSTest

Basically, you can do:

MSTest /testcontainer:\Solution1\Tests\Debug\Test.dll
