Like most of us, I learned the following shortcuts from the menu 
Figure: VS Run tests menu items with shortcuts
| Ctrl+R,T | Run tests in current context |
| Ctrl+R,A | Run all tests in solution |
| Ctrl+R,Y | Run all impacted tests |
with their corresponding Debug Mode, by using <Ctrl> for the second keystroke. E.g. Ctrl+R,Ctrl+T Debug tests in current context
Today I discovered these additional shortcuts.
I discovered those by changing some shortcuts from using MSTest to TestDriven, as per suggestion from RBanks54 (which rocks BTW, both)
| Ctrl+R,N | Run tests in namespace |
| Ctrl+R,C | Run tests in class |
Not sure how useful those are, but I tend to scroll through the whole list of shortcuts now and learn some new ones…
Figure: Keyboard options where I found those
Enjoy!
PS
Ctrl+R, F Runs all checked tests (that means tests that failed in the last run, when using MSTest with the GUI)

Interesting, though I'd find it much more useful if there were the possibility to organize tests into "suites" (like in JUnit). Didn't found a way to do that so far.
Btw, did you buy Testdriven.net??

I use to organise my tests via projects and classes. And give them a meaningful name.
E.g.
Project:Tests.Unit.WCFService
Class: AccountServiceTests
Test: CalculateSalary_NoEmployeeSelected_ReturnError
But you are right categories are quite nice... but not necessary...

Not yet...

That's fine and an absolute must, otherwise you completely loose control over your test organization. But still I find it an extreme lack of not having the possibility to organize them in categories/suites. Anyway :) the force of habit :)
>>possibility to organize them in categories/suites.
nunit and mbunit have this feature.
xunit and mstest not so far...
lots of people (including me) say its better to make separate test assemblies (=categories)
