'Usage
Dim instance As DataSourceAttribute

public sealed class DataSourceAttribute : Attribute
[AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets::Class, AllowMultiple = true)]
public ref class DataSourceAttribute sealed : public Attribute
public final class DataSourceAttribute extends Attribute
Remarks
The data source cannot be changed based on input during a test because all the data is loaded and cached before the first test runs. To change data sources at run-time, you can implement your own data binding. Use ADO.NET or a StreamReader when you read from a file.
This attribute can be applied to classes. This attribute can be applied multiple times. For more information about how to use attributes, see Extending Metadata Using Attributes.
