migrate-nunit-to-mstest
From the author
Convert .NET tests from NUnit 3/4 to MSTest v4 while preserving VSTest or MTP. Use for replacing NUnit/NUnit3TestAdapter packages, Test/TestCase/ TestCaseSource/Values attributes, constraint assertions, SetUp/TearDown, OneTimeSetUp, SetUpFixture, FixtureLifeCycle, TestContext, categories, retries, timeouts, and NUnit parallelization. Also use when a "convert NUnit to MSTest" request may already be migrated: inspect and report the no-op. Do not use for NUnit version upgrades, xUnit/TUnit conversion, MSTest upgrades, or runner-only VSTest-to-MTP migration.

- migrate-vstest-to-mtpdotnet/skillsUse this skill before answering, planning, or editing whenever .NET tests or CI are switching from VSTest to Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP), or an MTP migration behaves differently. Triggers include "switch from VSTest"; MSTest/NUnit/xUnit MTP enablement; OutputType=Exe only for test projects in Directory.Build.props; EnableMSTestRunner, EnableNUnitRunner, UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner, or YTest.MTP.XUnit2; .NET 10 global.json test.runner and TestingPlatformDotnetTestSupport; translating VSTest filters, logger, coverage, blame, or dump arguments; replacing VSTest@3; and exit code 8 or zero tests. Also use for xUnit v3 MTP filters during a v2-to-v3 upgrade. Do not use for framework conversion, TFM, UWP, or WinUI.Testing★ 5.7K
- migrate-xunit-to-xunit-v3dotnet/skillsMigrate .NET test projects from xUnit.net v2 to xunit.v3 and fix v3 breaks. Use for package/CPM conversion, OutputType=Exe, preserving the VSTest or MTP runner (including projects currently using YTest.MTP.XUnit2), incompatible TFMs, async void tests, string-to-Type attributes, custom Fact/Theory/BeforeAfterTest attributes, Xunit.SkippableFact, xunit.abstractions/extensibility consolidation, and Xunit.Combinatorial/StaFact compatibility. Do not use for framework conversion or a runner-only migration. For xUnit v3 MTP filter syntax, also use migrate-vstest-to-mtp.Testing★ 5.7K
- migrate-mstest-v3-to-v4dotnet/skillsUse this skill before answering, planning, or editing any MSTest 3.x-to-4.x upgrade or post-upgrade failure. Triggers include "MSTest v4 breaking changes"; CS0507/CS0103/CS1061/CS1615; ExecuteAsync, CallerInfo, DisplayName, or custom TestMethodAttribute; ClassCleanupBehavior; ContainsKey; ThrowsExactly or ExpectedException; IsInstanceOfType out parameters; TestTimeout.Infinite; ManagedType; net6/net7 compatibility; TestCase.Id history; TestName in ClassInitialize; TreatDiscoveryWarningsAsErrors; discovery errors after a clean build; and MSTest.Sdk/MTP or vstest.console discovery changes. Do not use for v1/v2-to-v3 leftovers, framework conversion, runner-only migration, or a general .NET upgrade.Marketing★ 5.7K
- migrate-mstest-v1v2-to-v3dotnet/skillsUse this skill before answering or editing whenever an MSTest v1/v2 project is being upgraded or repaired for v3. Triggers include QualityTools assembly references; MSTest.TestFramework/TestAdapter 1.x-2.x; "upgrade to MSTest v3"; comparing v1 and v2 migration paths; choosing MSTest or MSTest.Sdk; CS0411/CS1503 after a v3 package bump; DataRow type mismatch, MSTEST0014, or "Test data doesn't match method parameters"; .testsettings/LegacySettings to .runsettings; timeout changes; and net5.0 or other dropped v3 TFMs. Still use it when packages say 3.x but migration source errors or legacy settings remain. Preserve VSTest/MTP. Do not use for a clean v3 project, v3-to-v4, framework conversion, or runner-only migration.Testing★ 5.7K
- filter-syntaxdotnet/skillsReference-only filter syntax for VSTest and MTP with MSTest, NUnit, xUnit v3, and TUnit. Load only after the platform/framework is known and a consumer needs to create or translate a filter. Do not load for unfiltered runs or platform detection. Used by run-tests and mtp-hot-reload; never invoke directly.Testing★ 5.7K
- run-testsdotnet/skillsALWAYS USE before running .NET tests or answering with a test command or flags. Trigger on "run the tests", "exact dotnet test command", one test/class/category/trait/target framework, combined filters, `--filter-query`, `--no-build`, `--diag`, diagnostic logs, TRX, coverage collection, crash/hang dumps, filter errors, or unrecognized options. Chooses repository-compatible classic, VSTest, bridged MTP, or native MTP syntax for MSTest/xUnit/NUnit/TUnit. DO NOT USE for platform identification alone (platform-detection), writing or debugging test code, interpreting an existing coverage report, CI investigation, migration, or a persistent hot reload/watch loop.Testing★ 5.7K
