FAQPage Schema

How do I run xUnit or NUnit unit tests for a specific .NET project?▼

To run unit tests for a specific .NET project, provide the project_path input while executing within the dotnet directory. This targets a single project, outputting test results and a non-zero exit code on failure.

How do I generate code coverage reports for .NET projects using coverlet?▼

Generate .NET code coverage by enabling the coverage input when running tests. This applies coverlet to produce coverage data, allowing you to review coverage reports alongside the standard test results output.

Can I run BenchmarkDotNet benchmarks alongside unit tests in .NET?▼

Yes, you can run BenchmarkDotNet benchmarks by enabling the optional benchmark input. This executes performance benchmarks alongside your unit tests, outputting benchmark results for performance insight.

What inputs do I need to configure before executing .NET unit tests?▼

Before executing .NET unit tests, configure inputs like target (all, specific project, or path), configuration, coverage, and project_path. Ensure execution occurs within the dotnet directory to produce valid test results.

Why does my .NET test execution fail with a non-zero exit code?▼

Your .NET test execution returns a non-zero exit code upon test failure. This indicates that one or more unit tests failed during the run, stopping the process and highlighting the broken tests in the output results.
