Can't reference a project to run unit testing on it

Question

I'm runnig through this walkthrough on the Microsoft website. I have gotten up to creating the Unit testing project, here. I just cant seem to reference my project.

I right click on references in my Solution Explorer.

Then I go to solution under the projects tab.

If I choose the browse I don't know what to find.

This was no help. Along with other links that I searched.

I just don't know what to do at this point? What am I supposed to look for when browsing to reference my project?

To answer Ayb4btu question. My folder looks like this

UnitTest //Top folder
    Bank //Bank project to be tested
    BankTest //Bank Unit Test project

Have you got two projects in your solution (the unit test project, and the project to test)? — Ayb4btu, Aug 13 '17 at 05:36
@Ayb4btu I have added the folder structure to my question. How do I check if these two projects are in the solution. Isn't that what the reference is going to do? — Funlamb, Aug 13 '17 at 05:57
@Ashikirsha I tried those things on the answer you gave me but it didn't help. I don't even have a reference to the project. — Funlamb, Aug 13 '17 at 05:58
@sifavahora Where is the .dll file I need to add? How do I know if I have done it correctly? — Funlamb, Aug 13 '17 at 06:00
it should be in Bank/bin/Debug/ based on the image 2 that you have posted — sifa vahora, Aug 13 '17 at 06:14

Your solution file has no projects in it other than your test project. Add the project you want to test to your solution, and then you'll be able to take a project reference on it from your test project.

Do this by right clicking the Solution>Add>Existing Project...
