Skill instructions
VSTest - Microsoft.Testing.Platform Migration Migrate a .NET test solution from VSTest to Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP). The outcome is a solution where all test projects run on MTP, dotnet test works correctly, and CI/CD pipelines are updated. Important: Do not mix VSTest-based and MTP-based .NET test projects in the same solution or run configuration -- this is an unsupported scenario. When to Use - Switching from VSTest to Microsoft.Testing.Platform for any supported test framework - Enabling dotnet run / dotnet watch / direct executable execution for test projects - Enabling Native AOT or trimmed test execution - Replacing vstest.console.exe with dotnet test on MTP - Updating CI/CD pipelines from the VSTest task to the .NET Core CLI task - Updating dotnet test arguments from VSTest syntax to MTP syntax When Not to Use - The project already runs on Microsoft.Testing.Platform and there is no remaining MTP behavioral difference to resolve (e.g., exit code 8 for zero tests discovere
