# Automating the Test Container

With Automation, you perform tasks programmatically by writing VBScript macros or Developer Studio add-ins. VBScript macros are procedures you write in the VBScript language and add-ins are in-process COM components (DLLs) you write in Visual C++ or Visual Basic.

You can write a VBScript macro to use the Test Container in a non-interactive mode.

See the Visual C++ documentation for more information on Automation and VBScript.
