Is Chutzpah Test Adapter not available for VS 2013 Express Edition - visual-studio-2013

I want to use the Chutzpah Test Adapter to run Jasmine tests in VS 2013 Express edition. I am using TypeScript with AngularJS in a Web Api project.
I have used Chutzpah Test Adapter successfully in VS 2012 Ultimate edition elsewhere but I cannot get the Test Adapter in the Tools > Extensions and Updates. Also the download from the Chutzpah site does not install it for the VS 2013 Express edition.
If Chutzpah does not work for VS 2013 Express, does anyone know of any alternatives for unit testing TypeScript code in VS 2013 Express Edition.
Thanks.

Visual Studio Express editions do not support third party extensions.

Running .webtest tests results in ".webtest is not a valid extension"

I'm using VS2017 - is there any way to get webtests working without installing VS2017 Enterprise? All I need is mstest.exe - not the GUI or IDE.
No, for unit test you can install Agents For Visual Studio 2017.
But for Web Load & Performance Testing, it is only supported in Visual Studio Enterprise 2017, So you need to install Visual Studio Enterprise 2017 with Web Performance and Load testing tools.
More information about VS 2017 supported features, you can refer to: Compare Visual Studio 2017 IDEs
Reference below threads:
Getting error: File extension specified '.webtest' is not a valid test extension
Can I use mstest.exe without installing Visual Studio?

Microsoft Test Professional 2013 can't open .net projects

I recently got a copy of Microsoft Test Professional 2013, where previously I used Visual Studio 2012. I'm unable to run any projects within Visual Studio 2013 - Shell Integrated, which comes with Test Professional 2013.
The development team have upgraded to Visual Studio 2013 with no issues and we have tried changing the project versions.
I have checked that I have the correct .net framework and mvc installed.
Should I be able to open the projects and if so what might be going wrong?

Team Build 2010 software requirements for VS 2008 clients

One of our TFS 2010 requirements is to support software projects that still use Visual Studio Team System 2008 for development. My question is whether a Build Server based on Team Build 2010 can compile 2008 code by itself. I mean connecting to TFS 2010 using Visual Studio Team Suite 2008, which means we are planning to install the Forward Compatibility Update on all development machines.
We have an existing TFS 2008 system and according to that the build server requires VSTS 2008 to be installed in order to compile code and run automated tests. I would assume the same for TFS 2010 where VS 2010 Ultimate should be installed in the build server, but we are not sure whether VSTS 2008 is required "as well" in this use case.
I hope someone could share their thoughts about this. Thanks.
As long as you install;
Visual Studio 2008 Team Suite,
Visual Stduio 2008 Team Explorer
VS2008 SP1
and 2008 GDR forward compatibility pack next to Visual Studio 2010 on the buildserver, Team Build 2010 can compile and unittest 2008 solutions. There are however some known issues with Workflow projects, so install VS 2010 and TFS 2010 SP1 and test your solutions.

TFS 2008 to Build VS 2010 Projects - what version of VS should go on the TFS Server?

I need to get VS 2010 projects that are using Visual Studio Tests building on a TFS 2008 build server. I didn't want to have to install VS 2010 but am now willing to do so after trying the advice one person posted here:
http://www.richard-banks.org/2009/11/how-to-build-vs2010-solutions-using.html
and some other posts I've found but am still getting errors from the VS Test dlls.
What version of VS 2010 do I need to install to support builds with VS Tests for a TFS 2008 build server?
I was able to get VS 2010 projects to build using TFS 2008 source only by installing Team Foundation Server Build and Team Foundation Server 2010 Build agents. I also had to install Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008.
I followed the advice here as well to set TFS 2008 build agent to use .net 4:
