[C#] Test Project, include Xml file

[Dj_Jestar]

I have a Test project, that has an xml file included. But when I run the test, it does not 'include' the file in the test project working directory, ala.. there is no Xml file available.

e.g:

[TestClass]
public class MyTest
{
  private testData = new XmlDocument();

  [TestInitialize]
  public void Initialize()
  {
    testData.Load("Example.xml"); //FileNotFoundException
  }
}

I've added the Example.xml file to the project via "Add" > "Xml file", but I'm always getting FileNotFoundException... :/

Any advice on ensuring the file is included? No, I cannot use absolute paths. This test and project is run on many different machines.

EDIT: Already changed "Copy to output directory" as "Copy always"

Found the solution..

[TestClass]
public class MyTest
{
  private testData = new XmlDocument();

  [TestInitialize]
  public void Initialize()
  {
    testData.Load("Example.xml");
  }

  [TestMethod]
  [DeploymentItem("Example.xml")] // this line resolves problem
  public void TestFoo()
  {
    // some test
  }
}

Edited my post to make it a bit clearer

Yes I did solve the problem by applying the [DeploymentItem("Example.xml")] attribute to my test method - note not the Initialize() method!
