Using config files in MSTest (testConfig)

I´m trying to use MyProject.config in MSTest. I added this file in "Deployment" (testConfig). What is the best practice to access those fields? Can i build something like Java Properties?

Example:

<host>localhost</host>
<port>0</port>
<user>me</user>

Edit: I have two Unit Test suite . I want to use diferents config files in each test.

Is the ConfigurationManager.AppSettings property of any use? Give that a try and see if it works, like this:

string port = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("port");

You'd need to refactor your configuration file to be a standard "App.config" file, and you add key/value pairs like this:

<configuration>
  <appSettings>
    <add key="port" value="80" />
  </appSettings>
</configuration>
