I have a simple dotnet core class library with a single XUnit test method:
TestLib.csproj:
<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">
<PropertyGroup>
<TargetFramework>netstandard2.0</TargetFramework>
</PropertyGroup>
<ItemGroup>
<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.NET.Test.SDK" Version="15.9.0" />
<PackageReference Include="xunit" Version="2.4.1" />
<PackageReference Include="xunit.runner.console" Version="2.4.1">
<IncludeAssets>runtime; build; native; contentfiles; analyzers</IncludeAssets>
<PrivateAssets>all</PrivateAssets>
</PackageReference>
<PackageReference Include="xunit.runner.visualstudio" Version="2.4.1">
<IncludeAssets>runtime; build; native; contentfiles; analyzers</IncludeAssets>
<PrivateAssets>all</PrivateAssets>
</PackageReference>
<PackageReference Include="xunit.runners" Version="2.0.0" />
</ItemGroup>
</Project>
BasicTest.cs:
using Xunit;
namespace TestLib
{
public class BasicTest
{
[Fact(DisplayName = "Basic unit test")]
[Trait("Category", "unit")]
public void TestStringHelper()
{
var sut = "sut";
var verify = "sut";
Assert.Equal(sut, verify);
}
}
}
If I enter the project on the CLI and type dotnet build
the project builds. If I type dotnet test
I get this:
C:\git\Testing\TestLib> dotnet test

What do I need to change to get the test to run?
If it helps, VS Code is not displaying the tests in its test explorer, either.
