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.

TestInitialize and TestCleanup are ran before and after each test, this is to ensure that no tests are coupled. If you want to run methods before and after ALL tests, decorate relevant methods with the ClassInitialize and ClassCleanup attributes.

Having a managed C++ class, enables you to use it also in fx. C# (CSharp) .NET scope. The memory scope is different, so if you are interfacing with .NET, then you need to use C++ managed unit test or C# unit test project
