What is IntelliTest in Visual Studio?

IntelliTest explores your . NET code to generate test data and a suite of unit tests. For every statement in the code, a test input is generated that will execute that statement. A case analysis is performed for every conditional branch in the code.

What is unit test project in Visual Studio?

Unit tests often mirror the structure of the code under test. For example, a unit test project would be created for each code project in the product. The test project can be in the same solution as the production code, or it can be in a separate solution. You can have multiple unit test projects in a solution.

IntelliTest can augment an existing unit testing practice you may be following already. Please see here: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/visualstudio/2015/09/30/intellitest-for-net-test-more-with-less-effort/ for some thoughts. You do not have to choose one over the other. They are complementary.
