title: How to manually create a mdf file for localdb to use?
body: <p>I'm setting up some unit tests for testing work done with a database. I would like to use localdb v11 but first I need to create the database. How exactly do I do this?</p>
  
  <p>simply connecting to <code>(localdb)v11</code> in sql management studio connects me to the database that (I assume) is in <code>C:\Users\George\</code>. How do I specify a new one?</p>
  
  <p>The code uses manual ADO.Net, not Entity Framework so as far as I know I cannot rely on it to simply create the database.</p>
