Why

The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge dotnet test relied on, so dotnet test failed outright on every PR: Testing with VSTest target is no longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and later. This is what was blocking #443, #444, #445, and #446 (all four currently fail on the Run unit tests job).

What

  • Opt UtilitiesTests into native Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP): global.json's test.runner setting, plus UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner/OutputType=Exe on the test project, per the official migration guide.
  • Swap coverlet.collector (VSTest-only) for Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage, the native MTP coverage provider.
  • Bump Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk and the xunit.v3 family to the versions that ship a compatible MTP runtime; the prior xunit.v3 3.2.2 pairing threw a TypeLoadException against the newer platform assembly.
  • Update the validate workflow's dotnet test invocation (--coverage instead of --collect), naming the output file explicitly (--coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml): the extension's default GUID basename is not matched by codecov-action's file finder, so the upload step would otherwise silently find nothing under fail_ci_if_error: false.
  • Fix three ExtensionsTests.cs null-argument tests that were missing the null-forgiving operator a sibling test already used; TreatWarningsAsErrors never reached these under the old VSTest error, which aborted the build before the test project ever compiled.
  • Add global.json to the Solution Items folder and fix Directory.Packages.props's alphabetical ordering.

Verification

Ran locally against .NET 10.0.400: dotnet build (0 warnings/errors), dotnet test --coverage --coverage-output-format cobertura --coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml --results-directory ./coverage (183/183 passed, coverage/coverage.cobertura.xml produced), dotnet csharpier check ., and dotnet format style --verify-no-changes all clean. Reviewed with a local adversarial pass before pushing (fleet local-strict-review).

Known trade-off

Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage ships native instrumentation for win-x64/x86/arm64, linux-x64, linux-musl-x64, and osx-x64 only, no osx-arm64 or linux-arm64. CI runs on ubuntu-latest (x64) and is unaffected, but coverage collection won't work locally on Apple Silicon or Linux arm64 dev machines, where coverlet.collector had none of that restriction. Flagging for awareness rather than blocking on it, since this is the officially recommended MTP coverage path.

    • Updated the test runner and testing tools for improved compatibility and execution.
    • Added consistent Cobertura code coverage reporting.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The test suite now uses Microsoft Testing Platform, updated xUnit tooling, and native code coverage. CI writes a named Cobertura report. Null-input tests suppress nullable warnings while preserving their exception assertions.

Changes

Testing platform migration

Layer / File(s)Summary
Platform and package configuration
global.json, Directory.Packages.props, Utilities.slnx
The solution selects Microsoft Testing Platform and updates the testing and coverage package versions.
Test runner project configuration
UtilitiesTests/UtilitiesTests.csproj
The test project enables the native runner and uses Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage instead of coverlet.collector.
Coverage workflow and test compatibility
.github/workflows/validate-task.yml, UtilitiesTests/ExtensionsTests.cs
CI writes ./coverage/coverage.cobertura.xml. Null-input tests suppress nullable analysis before calling the tested extensions.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~15 minutes

Merge Risk:🟡 Moderate · up to 9efb2

The new global.json currently fails the repository's formatting check, which blocks the validation workflow; the PR is not merge-ready until the line endings are corrected or the failure is explicitly accepted.

High-Level Assessment

The native Microsoft.Testing.Platform migration is the appropriate long-term fix for .NET 10. Pinning an older SDK would only defer the incompatibility, while retaining Coverlet would preserve a VSTest-only dependency; explicit coverage naming is also preferable to customizing Codecov discovery around generated GUID filenames.

The MTP migration is coherent across project config, package versions, and CI invocation, and the diffs show no remaining inconsistencies or broken references.

Review details

  • Review effort level: Lite

Matches the PrivateAssets treatment already used for coverlet.collector
and xunit.analyzers, per Copilot review on PR #447. IncludeAssets keeps
'compile', unlike coverlet.collector: the MTP self-registration code
generated for the test project references this extension's types
directly, so excluding compile assets breaks the build.

## Why
Same regression as #447, on `main` this time (per
`.github/dependabot.yml`, `main` and `develop` are kept current
independently). The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge `dotnet test`
relied on, so `dotnet test` failed outright: `Testing with VSTest target
is no longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and
later.` This is what was blocking #443 and #444 (both currently fail on
the `Run unit tests job`).
## What
Identical fix to #447, cherry-picked (the relevant files were
byte-identical between `main` and `develop` before this PR):
- Opt `UtilitiesTests` into native Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP) via
`global.json`'s `test.runner` setting plus
`UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner`/`OutputType=Exe`.
- Swap `coverlet.collector` (VSTest-only) for
`Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage` (native MTP coverage),
marked test-only via `PrivateAssets`.
- Bump
`Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk`/`xunit.v3`/`xunit.analyzers`/`xunit.runner.visualstudio`
to versions with a compatible MTP runtime.
- Update the validate workflow's `dotnet test` invocation (`--coverage`
instead of `--collect`, with an explicit `--coverage-output` filename
codecov-action can discover).
- Fix three `ExtensionsTests.cs` null-argument tests missing a
null-forgiving operator.
- `global.json` in CRLF (this repo's `.editorconfig` convention) and
added to Solution Items.
## Verification
Already went through #447's full review loop (local adversarial review,
Copilot, CodeRabbit, all findings fixed) on identical content.
Re-verified independently on this branch: `dotnet build` (0
warnings/errors), `dotnet test --coverage --coverage-output-format
cobertura --coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml --results-directory
./coverage` (183/183 passed), `dotnet csharpier check .`, `dotnet format
style --verify-no-changes`, and `editorconfig-checker` on `global.json`
all clean.

Promotes the hub resync (#451) to `main`.
## Why this is a `promote/` branch rather than `develop` itself
`main` carried its own copies of work `develop` had done independently:
the Microsoft.Testing.Platform migration (#448 against #447) and an
AwesomeAssertions bump (#450 against #449). Combined with the CRLF-to-LF
renormalization, `develop -> main` conflicts on seven paths, and
`develop`'s `required_linear_history` plus its PR ruleset forbid
resolving them on `develop`. This is the documented remedy: resolve on a
throwaway branch off `main`, then open that into `main`.
## The resolution is provably exactly `develop`
Every conflict was resolved to `develop`'s side, and the result is
byte-identical to `develop`'s tree:
```text
merged tree 5035943
develop tree 5035943
```
Each was confirmed lossless before `develop` was taken, per the
documented check:
| Path | Why taking `develop` drops nothing |
| --- | --- |
| `global.json` | Content-identical modulo EOL. `main` added it CRLF,
`develop` renormalized it. |
| `UtilitiesTests/UtilitiesTests.csproj` | Content-identical modulo EOL.
|
| `UtilitiesTests/ExtensionsTests.cs` | Content-identical modulo EOL. |
| `Directory.Packages.props` | Differs in one line, the coverage
extension, where `develop` is the newer 18.10.0 against `main`'s 18.9.0.
|
| `Utilities.slnx` | `main`'s extra entries are a duplicate
`dependabot.yml`, a `Data/` folder naming three files this repository
does not contain, and the two workflow tasks `develop` deleted because
the hub now hosts them. Verified each path is absent on `develop`, and
that `dependabot.yml` is still listed there under GitHub Actions. |
| `.github/workflows/build-release-task.yml` | Deleted on `develop` per
its `retire` disposition. |
| `.github/workflows/validate-task.yml` | Deleted on `develop`, which
now calls the hub-hosted validator by pin. |
## Verification
Run against this branch's tree, not inferred from #451:
```text
dotnet build 0 warnings, 0 errors
dotnet csharpier check . 43 files, clean
dotnet format style --verify-no-changes clean
dotnet test (MTP + coverage) 183/183 passed
markdownlint-cli2 '**/*.md' 48 files, 0 issues
actionlint clean
editorconfig-checker clean
repo_gate.py eol, eol-coverage, sha-pin all clean
prose_lint.py --diff origin/main clean
```
## Merging
The head is `promote/develop-to-main`, not `develop`, so the
delete-`develop` trap does not apply here. Merge with a merge commit
rather than a squash, per the `main` ruleset.
<!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai

Why

The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge dotnet test relied on, so dotnet test failed outright on every PR: Testing with VSTest target is no longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and later. This is what was blocking #443, #444, #445, and #446 (all four currently fail on the Run unit tests job).

What

  • Opt UtilitiesTests into native Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP): global.json's test.runner setting, plus UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner/OutputType=Exe on the test project, per the official migration guide.
  • Swap coverlet.collector (VSTest-only) for Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage, the native MTP coverage provider.
  • Bump Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk and the xunit.v3 family to the versions that ship a compatible MTP runtime; the prior xunit.v3 3.2.2 pairing threw a TypeLoadException against the newer platform assembly.
  • Update the validate workflow's dotnet test invocation (--coverage instead of --collect), naming the output file explicitly (--coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml): the extension's default GUID basename is not matched by codecov-action's file finder, so the upload step would otherwise silently find nothing under fail_ci_if_error: false.
  • Fix three ExtensionsTests.cs null-argument tests that were missing the null-forgiving operator a sibling test already used; TreatWarningsAsErrors never reached these under the old VSTest error, which aborted the build before the test project ever compiled.
  • Add global.json to the Solution Items folder and fix Directory.Packages.props's alphabetical ordering.

Verification

Ran locally against .NET 10.0.400: dotnet build (0 warnings/errors), dotnet test --coverage --coverage-output-format cobertura --coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml --results-directory ./coverage (183/183 passed, coverage/coverage.cobertura.xml produced), dotnet csharpier check ., and dotnet format style --verify-no-changes all clean. Reviewed with a local adversarial pass before pushing (fleet local-strict-review).

Known trade-off

Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage ships native instrumentation for win-x64/x86/arm64, linux-x64, linux-musl-x64, and osx-x64 only, no osx-arm64 or linux-arm64. CI runs on ubuntu-latest (x64) and is unaffected, but coverage collection won't work locally on Apple Silicon or Linux arm64 dev machines, where coverlet.collector had none of that restriction. Flagging for awareness rather than blocking on it, since this is the officially recommended MTP coverage path.

High-Level Assessment

The native Microsoft.Testing.Platform migration is the appropriate long-term fix for .NET 10. Pinning an older SDK would only defer the incompatibility, while retaining Coverlet would preserve a VSTest-only dependency; explicit coverage naming is also preferable to customizing Codecov discovery around generated GUID filenames.

🟢 Approval recommended

The changes align with the stated .NET 10 migration goal and appear internally consistent, with only a small optional packaging hygiene suggestion noted.

Pull request overview

Migrates UtilitiesTests to run under native Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10, updating coverage collection and CI invocation so dotnet test works again with the .NET 10 SDK changes.

Changes:

  • Opt UtilitiesTests into Microsoft.Testing.Platform via global.json and test-project settings (UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner, OutputType=Exe).
  • Replace VSTest-based coverage collection (coverlet.collector) with Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage, and update CI to use dotnet test --coverage with an explicit Cobertura output name.
  • Update relevant test/tooling package versions and fix nullable warnings in null-argument tests.

The MTP migration is coherent across project config, package versions, and CI invocation, and the diffs show no remaining inconsistencies or broken references.

Matches the PrivateAssets treatment already used for coverlet.collector
and xunit.analyzers, per Copilot review on PR #447. IncludeAssets keeps
'compile', unlike coverlet.collector: the MTP self-registration code
generated for the test project references this extension's types
directly, so excluding compile assets breaks the build.

## Why
Same regression as #447, on `main` this time (per
`.github/dependabot.yml`, `main` and `develop` are kept current
independently). The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge `dotnet test`
relied on, so `dotnet test` failed outright: `Testing with VSTest target
is no longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and
later.` This is what was blocking #443 and #444 (both currently fail on
the `Run unit tests job`).
## What
Identical fix to #447, cherry-picked (the relevant files were
byte-identical between `main` and `develop` before this PR):
- Opt `UtilitiesTests` into native Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP) via
`global.json`'s `test.runner` setting plus
`UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner`/`OutputType=Exe`.
- Swap `coverlet.collector` (VSTest-only) for
`Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage` (native MTP coverage),
marked test-only via `PrivateAssets`.
- Bump
`Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk`/`xunit.v3`/`xunit.analyzers`/`xunit.runner.visualstudio`
to versions with a compatible MTP runtime.
- Update the validate workflow's `dotnet test` invocation (`--coverage`
instead of `--collect`, with an explicit `--coverage-output` filename
codecov-action can discover).
- Fix three `ExtensionsTests.cs` null-argument tests missing a
null-forgiving operator.
- `global.json` in CRLF (this repo's `.editorconfig` convention) and
added to Solution Items.
## Verification
Already went through #447's full review loop (local adversarial review,
Copilot, CodeRabbit, all findings fixed) on identical content.
Re-verified independently on this branch: `dotnet build` (0
warnings/errors), `dotnet test --coverage --coverage-output-format
cobertura --coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml --results-directory
./coverage` (183/183 passed), `dotnet csharpier check .`, `dotnet format
style --verify-no-changes`, and `editorconfig-checker` on `global.json`
all clean.

Promotes the hub resync (#451) to `main`.
## Why this is a `promote/` branch rather than `develop` itself
`main` carried its own copies of work `develop` had done independently:
the Microsoft.Testing.Platform migration (#448 against #447) and an
AwesomeAssertions bump (#450 against #449). Combined with the CRLF-to-LF
renormalization, `develop -> main` conflicts on seven paths, and
`develop`'s `required_linear_history` plus its PR ruleset forbid
resolving them on `develop`. This is the documented remedy: resolve on a
throwaway branch off `main`, then open that into `main`.
## The resolution is provably exactly `develop`
Every conflict was resolved to `develop`'s side, and the result is
byte-identical to `develop`'s tree:
```text
merged tree 5035943
develop tree 5035943
```
Each was confirmed lossless before `develop` was taken, per the
documented check:
| Path | Why taking `develop` drops nothing |
| --- | --- |
| `global.json` | Content-identical modulo EOL. `main` added it CRLF,
`develop` renormalized it. |
| `UtilitiesTests/UtilitiesTests.csproj` | Content-identical modulo EOL.
|
| `UtilitiesTests/ExtensionsTests.cs` | Content-identical modulo EOL. |
| `Directory.Packages.props` | Differs in one line, the coverage
extension, where `develop` is the newer 18.10.0 against `main`'s 18.9.0.
|
| `Utilities.slnx` | `main`'s extra entries are a duplicate
`dependabot.yml`, a `Data/` folder naming three files this repository
does not contain, and the two workflow tasks `develop` deleted because
the hub now hosts them. Verified each path is absent on `develop`, and
that `dependabot.yml` is still listed there under GitHub Actions. |
| `.github/workflows/build-release-task.yml` | Deleted on `develop` per
its `retire` disposition. |
| `.github/workflows/validate-task.yml` | Deleted on `develop`, which
now calls the hub-hosted validator by pin. |
## Verification
Run against this branch's tree, not inferred from #451:
```text
dotnet build 0 warnings, 0 errors
dotnet csharpier check . 43 files, clean
dotnet format style --verify-no-changes clean
dotnet test (MTP + coverage) 183/183 passed
markdownlint-cli2 '**/*.md' 48 files, 0 issues
actionlint clean
editorconfig-checker clean
repo_gate.py eol, eol-coverage, sha-pin all clean
prose_lint.py --diff origin/main clean
```
## Merging
The head is `promote/develop-to-main`, not `develop`, so the
delete-`develop` trap does not apply here. Merge with a merge commit
rather than a squash, per the `main` ruleset.

Why

The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge dotnet test relied on, so dotnet test failed outright on every PR: Testing with VSTest target is no longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and later. This is what was blocking #443, #444, #445, and #446 (all four currently fail on the Run unit tests job).

What

  • Opt UtilitiesTests into native Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP): global.json's test.runner setting, plus UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner/OutputType=Exe on the test project, per the official migration guide.
  • Swap coverlet.collector (VSTest-only) for Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage, the native MTP coverage provider.
  • Bump Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk and the xunit.v3 family to the versions that ship a compatible MTP runtime; the prior xunit.v3 3.2.2 pairing threw a TypeLoadException against the newer platform assembly.
  • Update the validate workflow's dotnet test invocation (--coverage instead of --collect), naming the output file explicitly (--coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml): the extension's default GUID basename is not matched by codecov-action's file finder, so the upload step would otherwise silently find nothing under fail_ci_if_error: false.
  • Fix three ExtensionsTests.cs null-argument tests that were missing the null-forgiving operator a sibling test already used; TreatWarningsAsErrors never reached these under the old VSTest error, which aborted the build before the test project ever compiled.
  • Add global.json to the Solution Items folder and fix Directory.Packages.props's alphabetical ordering.

Verification

Ran locally against .NET 10.0.400: dotnet build (0 warnings/errors), dotnet test --coverage --coverage-output-format cobertura --coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml --results-directory ./coverage (183/183 passed, coverage/coverage.cobertura.xml produced), dotnet csharpier check ., and dotnet format style --verify-no-changes all clean. Reviewed with a local adversarial pass before pushing (fleet local-strict-review).

Known trade-off

Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage ships native instrumentation for win-x64/x86/arm64, linux-x64, linux-musl-x64, and osx-x64 only, no osx-arm64 or linux-arm64. CI runs on ubuntu-latest (x64) and is unaffected, but coverage collection won't work locally on Apple Silicon or Linux arm64 dev machines, where coverlet.collector had none of that restriction. Flagging for awareness rather than blocking on it, since this is the officially recommended MTP coverage path.

Summary by CodeRabbit

High-Level Assessment

The native Microsoft.Testing.Platform migration is the appropriate long-term fix for .NET 10. Pinning an older SDK would only defer the incompatibility, while retaining Coverlet would preserve a VSTest-only dependency; explicit coverage naming is also preferable to customizing Codecov discovery around generated GUID filenames.

🟢 Approval recommended

The changes align with the stated .NET 10 migration goal and appear internally consistent, with only a small optional packaging hygiene suggestion noted.

Pull request overview

Migrates UtilitiesTests to run under native Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10, updating coverage collection and CI invocation so dotnet test works again with the .NET 10 SDK changes.

Changes:

  • Opt UtilitiesTests into Microsoft.Testing.Platform via global.json and test-project settings (UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner, OutputType=Exe).
  • Replace VSTest-based coverage collection (coverlet.collector) with Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage, and update CI to use dotnet test --coverage with an explicit Cobertura output name.
  • Update relevant test/tooling package versions and fix nullable warnings in null-argument tests.

The MTP migration is coherent across project config, package versions, and CI invocation, and the diffs show no remaining inconsistencies or broken references.

Matches the PrivateAssets treatment already used for coverlet.collector
and xunit.analyzers, per Copilot review on PR #447. IncludeAssets keeps
'compile', unlike coverlet.collector: the MTP self-registration code
generated for the test project references this extension's types
directly, so excluding compile assets breaks the build.

## Why
Same regression as #447, on `main` this time (per
`.github/dependabot.yml`, `main` and `develop` are kept current
independently). The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge `dotnet test`
relied on, so `dotnet test` failed outright: `Testing with VSTest target
is no longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and
later.` This is what was blocking #443 and #444 (both currently fail on
the `Run unit tests job`).
## What
Identical fix to #447, cherry-picked (the relevant files were
byte-identical between `main` and `develop` before this PR):
- Opt `UtilitiesTests` into native Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP) via
`global.json`'s `test.runner` setting plus
`UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner`/`OutputType=Exe`.
- Swap `coverlet.collector` (VSTest-only) for
`Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage` (native MTP coverage),
marked test-only via `PrivateAssets`.
- Bump
`Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk`/`xunit.v3`/`xunit.analyzers`/`xunit.runner.visualstudio`
to versions with a compatible MTP runtime.
- Update the validate workflow's `dotnet test` invocation (`--coverage`
instead of `--collect`, with an explicit `--coverage-output` filename
codecov-action can discover).
- Fix three `ExtensionsTests.cs` null-argument tests missing a
null-forgiving operator.
- `global.json` in CRLF (this repo's `.editorconfig` convention) and
added to Solution Items.
## Verification
Already went through #447's full review loop (local adversarial review,
Copilot, CodeRabbit, all findings fixed) on identical content.
Re-verified independently on this branch: `dotnet build` (0
warnings/errors), `dotnet test --coverage --coverage-output-format
cobertura --coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml --results-directory
./coverage` (183/183 passed), `dotnet csharpier check .`, `dotnet format
style --verify-no-changes`, and `editorconfig-checker` on `global.json`
all clean.

Promotes the hub resync (#451) to `main`.
## Why this is a `promote/` branch rather than `develop` itself
`main` carried its own copies of work `develop` had done independently:
the Microsoft.Testing.Platform migration (#448 against #447) and an
AwesomeAssertions bump (#450 against #449). Combined with the CRLF-to-LF
renormalization, `develop -> main` conflicts on seven paths, and
`develop`'s `required_linear_history` plus its PR ruleset forbid
resolving them on `develop`. This is the documented remedy: resolve on a
throwaway branch off `main`, then open that into `main`.
## The resolution is provably exactly `develop`
Every conflict was resolved to `develop`'s side, and the result is
byte-identical to `develop`'s tree:
```text
merged tree 5035943
develop tree 5035943
```
Each was confirmed lossless before `develop` was taken, per the
documented check:
| Path | Why taking `develop` drops nothing |
| --- | --- |
| `global.json` | Content-identical modulo EOL. `main` added it CRLF,
`develop` renormalized it. |
| `UtilitiesTests/UtilitiesTests.csproj` | Content-identical modulo EOL.
|
| `UtilitiesTests/ExtensionsTests.cs` | Content-identical modulo EOL. |
| `Directory.Packages.props` | Differs in one line, the coverage
extension, where `develop` is the newer 18.10.0 against `main`'s 18.9.0.
|
| `Utilities.slnx` | `main`'s extra entries are a duplicate
`dependabot.yml`, a `Data/` folder naming three files this repository
does not contain, and the two workflow tasks `develop` deleted because
the hub now hosts them. Verified each path is absent on `develop`, and
that `dependabot.yml` is still listed there under GitHub Actions. |
| `.github/workflows/build-release-task.yml` | Deleted on `develop` per
its `retire` disposition. |
| `.github/workflows/validate-task.yml` | Deleted on `develop`, which
now calls the hub-hosted validator by pin. |
## Verification
Run against this branch's tree, not inferred from #451:
```text
dotnet build 0 warnings, 0 errors
dotnet csharpier check . 43 files, clean
dotnet format style --verify-no-changes clean
dotnet test (MTP + coverage) 183/183 passed
markdownlint-cli2 '**/*.md' 48 files, 0 issues
actionlint clean
editorconfig-checker clean
repo_gate.py eol, eol-coverage, sha-pin all clean
prose_lint.py --diff origin/main clean
```
## Merging
The head is `promote/develop-to-main`, not `develop`, so the
delete-`develop` trap does not apply here. Merge with a merge commit
rather than a squash, per the `main` ruleset.

Why

The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge dotnet test relied on, so dotnet test failed outright on every PR: Testing with VSTest target is no longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and later. This is what was blocking #443, #444, #445, and #446 (all four currently fail on the Run unit tests job).

What

  • Opt UtilitiesTests into native Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP): global.json's test.runner setting, plus UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner/OutputType=Exe on the test project, per the official migration guide.
  • Swap coverlet.collector (VSTest-only) for Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage, the native MTP coverage provider.
  • Bump Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk and the xunit.v3 family to the versions that ship a compatible MTP runtime; the prior xunit.v3 3.2.2 pairing threw a TypeLoadException against the newer platform assembly.
  • Update the validate workflow's dotnet test invocation (--coverage instead of --collect), naming the output file explicitly (--coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml): the extension's default GUID basename is not matched by codecov-action's file finder, so the upload step would otherwise silently find nothing under fail_ci_if_error: false.
  • Fix three ExtensionsTests.cs null-argument tests that were missing the null-forgiving operator a sibling test already used; TreatWarningsAsErrors never reached these under the old VSTest error, which aborted the build before the test project ever compiled.
  • Add global.json to the Solution Items folder and fix Directory.Packages.props's alphabetical ordering.

Verification

Ran locally against .NET 10.0.400: dotnet build (0 warnings/errors), dotnet test --coverage --coverage-output-format cobertura --coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml --results-directory ./coverage (183/183 passed, coverage/coverage.cobertura.xml produced), dotnet csharpier check ., and dotnet format style --verify-no-changes all clean. Reviewed with a local adversarial pass before pushing (fleet local-strict-review).

Known trade-off

Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage ships native instrumentation for win-x64/x86/arm64, linux-x64, linux-musl-x64, and osx-x64 only, no osx-arm64 or linux-arm64. CI runs on ubuntu-latest (x64) and is unaffected, but coverage collection won't work locally on Apple Silicon or Linux arm64 dev machines, where coverlet.collector had none of that restriction. Flagging for awareness rather than blocking on it, since this is the officially recommended MTP coverage path.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests

    • Updated the test runner and testing tools for improved compatibility and execution.
    • Added consistent Cobertura code coverage reporting.
    • Preserved validation of expected compression and decompression errors.
  • Chores

    • Standardized .NET SDK and test environment configuration.
    • Updated test tooling and coverage integration packages.

The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge that dotnet test relied on,

longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and

Opt UtilitiesTests into native MTP (global.json test.runner, the
UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner project property) and swap
coverlet.collector, a VSTest-only collector, for the native
Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage provider. Bump

output file explicitly: the extension's default GUID basename is not
matched by codecov-action's file finder, so the upload step would

High-Level Assessment

The native Microsoft.Testing.Platform migration is the appropriate long-term fix for .NET 10. Pinning an older SDK would only defer the incompatibility, while retaining Coverlet would preserve a VSTest-only dependency; explicit coverage naming is also preferable to customizing Codecov discovery around generated GUID filenames.

Pull request overview

Migrates UtilitiesTests to run under native Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10, updating coverage collection and CI invocation so dotnet test works again with the .NET 10 SDK changes.

Changes:

  • Opt UtilitiesTests into Microsoft.Testing.Platform via global.json and test-project settings (UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner, OutputType=Exe).
  • Replace VSTest-based coverage collection (coverlet.collector) with Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage, and update CI to use dotnet test --coverage with an explicit Cobertura output name.
  • Update relevant test/tooling package versions and fix nullable warnings in null-argument tests.

Matches the PrivateAssets treatment already used for coverlet.collector
and xunit.analyzers, per Copilot review on PR #447. IncludeAssets keeps
'compile', unlike coverlet.collector: the MTP self-registration code
generated for the test project references this extension's types
directly, so excluding compile assets breaks the build.

## Why
Same regression as #447, on `main` this time (per
`.github/dependabot.yml`, `main` and `develop` are kept current
independently). The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge `dotnet test`
relied on, so `dotnet test` failed outright: `Testing with VSTest target
is no longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and
later.` This is what was blocking #443 and #444 (both currently fail on
the `Run unit tests job`).
## What
Identical fix to #447, cherry-picked (the relevant files were
byte-identical between `main` and `develop` before this PR):
- Opt `UtilitiesTests` into native Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP) via
`global.json`'s `test.runner` setting plus
`UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner`/`OutputType=Exe`.
- Swap `coverlet.collector` (VSTest-only) for
`Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage` (native MTP coverage),
marked test-only via `PrivateAssets`.
- Bump
`Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk`/`xunit.v3`/`xunit.analyzers`/`xunit.runner.visualstudio`
to versions with a compatible MTP runtime.
- Update the validate workflow's `dotnet test` invocation (`--coverage`
instead of `--collect`, with an explicit `--coverage-output` filename
codecov-action can discover).
- Fix three `ExtensionsTests.cs` null-argument tests missing a
null-forgiving operator.
- `global.json` in CRLF (this repo's `.editorconfig` convention) and
added to Solution Items.
## Verification
Already went through #447's full review loop (local adversarial review,
Copilot, CodeRabbit, all findings fixed) on identical content.
Re-verified independently on this branch: `dotnet build` (0
warnings/errors), `dotnet test --coverage --coverage-output-format
cobertura --coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml --results-directory
./coverage` (183/183 passed), `dotnet csharpier check .`, `dotnet format
style --verify-no-changes`, and `editorconfig-checker` on `global.json`
all clean.

Promotes the hub resync (#451) to `main`.
## Why this is a `promote/` branch rather than `develop` itself
`main` carried its own copies of work `develop` had done independently:
the Microsoft.Testing.Platform migration (#448 against #447) and an
AwesomeAssertions bump (#450 against #449). Combined with the CRLF-to-LF
renormalization, `develop -> main` conflicts on seven paths, and
`develop`'s `required_linear_history` plus its PR ruleset forbid
resolving them on `develop`. This is the documented remedy: resolve on a
throwaway branch off `main`, then open that into `main`.
## The resolution is provably exactly `develop`
Every conflict was resolved to `develop`'s side, and the result is
byte-identical to `develop`'s tree:
```text
merged tree 5035943
develop tree 5035943
```
Each was confirmed lossless before `develop` was taken, per the
documented check:
| Path | Why taking `develop` drops nothing |
| --- | --- |
| `global.json` | Content-identical modulo EOL. `main` added it CRLF,
`develop` renormalized it. |
| `UtilitiesTests/UtilitiesTests.csproj` | Content-identical modulo EOL.
|
| `UtilitiesTests/ExtensionsTests.cs` | Content-identical modulo EOL. |
| `Directory.Packages.props` | Differs in one line, the coverage
extension, where `develop` is the newer 18.10.0 against `main`'s 18.9.0.
|
| `Utilities.slnx` | `main`'s extra entries are a duplicate
`dependabot.yml`, a `Data/` folder naming three files this repository
does not contain, and the two workflow tasks `develop` deleted because
the hub now hosts them. Verified each path is absent on `develop`, and
that `dependabot.yml` is still listed there under GitHub Actions. |
| `.github/workflows/build-release-task.yml` | Deleted on `develop` per
its `retire` disposition. |
| `.github/workflows/validate-task.yml` | Deleted on `develop`, which
now calls the hub-hosted validator by pin. |
## Verification
Run against this branch's tree, not inferred from #451:
```text
dotnet build 0 warnings, 0 errors
dotnet csharpier check . 43 files, clean
dotnet format style --verify-no-changes clean
dotnet test (MTP + coverage) 183/183 passed
markdownlint-cli2 '**/*.md' 48 files, 0 issues
actionlint clean
editorconfig-checker clean
repo_gate.py eol, eol-coverage, sha-pin all clean
prose_lint.py --diff origin/main clean
```
## Merging
The head is `promote/develop-to-main`, not `develop`, so the
delete-`develop` trap does not apply here. Merge with a merge commit
rather than a squash, per the `main` ruleset.
<!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai

Why

The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge dotnet test relied on, so dotnet test failed outright on every PR: Testing with VSTest target is no longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and later. This is what was blocking #443, #444, #445, and #446 (all four currently fail on the Run unit tests job).

What

  • Opt UtilitiesTests into native Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP): global.json's test.runner setting, plus UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner/OutputType=Exe on the test project, per the official migration guide.
  • Swap coverlet.collector (VSTest-only) for Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage, the native MTP coverage provider.
  • Bump Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk and the xunit.v3 family to the versions that ship a compatible MTP runtime; the prior xunit.v3 3.2.2 pairing threw a TypeLoadException against the newer platform assembly.
  • Update the validate workflow's dotnet test invocation (--coverage instead of --collect), naming the output file explicitly (--coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml): the extension's default GUID basename is not matched by codecov-action's file finder, so the upload step would otherwise silently find nothing under fail_ci_if_error: false.
  • Fix three ExtensionsTests.cs null-argument tests that were missing the null-forgiving operator a sibling test already used; TreatWarningsAsErrors never reached these under the old VSTest error, which aborted the build before the test project ever compiled.
  • Add global.json to the Solution Items folder and fix Directory.Packages.props's alphabetical ordering.

Verification

Ran locally against .NET 10.0.400: dotnet build (0 warnings/errors), dotnet test --coverage --coverage-output-format cobertura --coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml --results-directory ./coverage (183/183 passed, coverage/coverage.cobertura.xml produced), dotnet csharpier check ., and dotnet format style --verify-no-changes all clean. Reviewed with a local adversarial pass before pushing (fleet local-strict-review).

Known trade-off

Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage ships native instrumentation for win-x64/x86/arm64, linux-x64, linux-musl-x64, and osx-x64 only, no osx-arm64 or linux-arm64. CI runs on ubuntu-latest (x64) and is unaffected, but coverage collection won't work locally on Apple Silicon or Linux arm64 dev machines, where coverlet.collector had none of that restriction. Flagging for awareness rather than blocking on it, since this is the officially recommended MTP coverage path.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests

    • Updated the test runner and testing tools for improved compatibility and execution.
    • Added consistent Cobertura code coverage reporting.
    • Preserved validation of expected compression and decompression errors.

longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and

UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner project property) and swap

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The test suite now uses Microsoft Testing Platform, updated xUnit tooling, and native code coverage. CI writes a named Cobertura report. Null-input tests suppress nullable warnings while preserving their exception assertions.

Changes

Testing platform migration

Layer / File(s)Summary
Platform and package configuration
global.json, Directory.Packages.props, Utilities.slnx
The solution selects Microsoft Testing Platform and updates the testing and coverage package versions.
Test runner project configuration
UtilitiesTests/UtilitiesTests.csproj
The test project enables the native runner and uses Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage instead of coverlet.collector.
Coverage workflow and test compatibility
.github/workflows/validate-task.yml, UtilitiesTests/ExtensionsTests.cs
CI writes ./coverage/coverage.cobertura.xml. Null-input tests suppress nullable analysis before calling the tested extensions.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~15 minutes

Merge Risk:🟡 Moderate · up to 9efb2

The new global.json currently fails the repository's formatting check, which blocks the validation workflow; the PR is not merge-ready until the line endings are corrected or the failure is explicitly accepted.

High-Level Assessment

The native Microsoft.Testing.Platform migration is the appropriate long-term fix for .NET 10. Pinning an older SDK would only defer the incompatibility, while retaining Coverlet would preserve a VSTest-only dependency; explicit coverage naming is also preferable to customizing Codecov discovery around generated GUID filenames.

Matches the PrivateAssets treatment already used for coverlet.collector
and xunit.analyzers, per Copilot review on PR #447. IncludeAssets keeps
'compile', unlike coverlet.collector: the MTP self-registration code
generated for the test project references this extension's types
directly, so excluding compile assets breaks the build.

independently). The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge `dotnet test`
relied on, so `dotnet test` failed outright: `Testing with VSTest target

Identical fix to #447, cherry-picked (the relevant files were
byte-identical between `main` and `develop` before this PR):
- Opt `UtilitiesTests` into native Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP) via
`global.json`'s `test.runner` setting plus
`UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner`/`OutputType=Exe`.
- Swap `coverlet.collector` (VSTest-only) for
`Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage` (native MTP coverage),
marked test-only via `PrivateAssets`.
- Bump
`Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk`/`xunit.v3`/`xunit.analyzers`/`xunit.runner.visualstudio`
to versions with a compatible MTP runtime.
- Update the validate workflow's `dotnet test` invocation (`--coverage`
instead of `--collect`, with an explicit `--coverage-output` filename
codecov-action can discover).
- Fix three `ExtensionsTests.cs` null-argument tests missing a
null-forgiving operator.
- `global.json` in CRLF (this repo's `.editorconfig` convention) and
added to Solution Items.
## Verification
Already went through #447's full review loop (local adversarial review,
Copilot, CodeRabbit, all findings fixed) on identical content.
Re-verified independently on this branch: `dotnet build` (0
warnings/errors), `dotnet test --coverage --coverage-output-format
cobertura --coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml --results-directory
./coverage` (183/183 passed), `dotnet csharpier check .`, `dotnet format
style --verify-no-changes`, and `editorconfig-checker` on `global.json`
all clean.

Promotes the hub resync (#451) to `main`.
## Why this is a `promote/` branch rather than `develop` itself
`main` carried its own copies of work `develop` had done independently:
the Microsoft.Testing.Platform migration (#448 against #447) and an
AwesomeAssertions bump (#450 against #449). Combined with the CRLF-to-LF
renormalization, `develop -> main` conflicts on seven paths, and
`develop`'s `required_linear_history` plus its PR ruleset forbid
resolving them on `develop`. This is the documented remedy: resolve on a
throwaway branch off `main`, then open that into `main`.
## The resolution is provably exactly `develop`
Every conflict was resolved to `develop`'s side, and the result is
byte-identical to `develop`'s tree:
```text
merged tree 5035943
develop tree 5035943
```
Each was confirmed lossless before `develop` was taken, per the
documented check:
| Path | Why taking `develop` drops nothing |
| --- | --- |
| `global.json` | Content-identical modulo EOL. `main` added it CRLF,
`develop` renormalized it. |
| `UtilitiesTests/UtilitiesTests.csproj` | Content-identical modulo EOL.
|
| `UtilitiesTests/ExtensionsTests.cs` | Content-identical modulo EOL. |
| `Directory.Packages.props` | Differs in one line, the coverage
extension, where `develop` is the newer 18.10.0 against `main`'s 18.9.0.
|
| `Utilities.slnx` | `main`'s extra entries are a duplicate
`dependabot.yml`, a `Data/` folder naming three files this repository
does not contain, and the two workflow tasks `develop` deleted because
the hub now hosts them. Verified each path is absent on `develop`, and
that `dependabot.yml` is still listed there under GitHub Actions. |
| `.github/workflows/build-release-task.yml` | Deleted on `develop` per
its `retire` disposition. |
| `.github/workflows/validate-task.yml` | Deleted on `develop`, which
now calls the hub-hosted validator by pin. |
## Verification
Run against this branch's tree, not inferred from #451:
```text
dotnet build 0 warnings, 0 errors
dotnet csharpier check . 43 files, clean
dotnet format style --verify-no-changes clean
dotnet test (MTP + coverage) 183/183 passed
markdownlint-cli2 '**/*.md' 48 files, 0 issues
actionlint clean
editorconfig-checker clean
repo_gate.py eol, eol-coverage, sha-pin all clean
prose_lint.py --diff origin/main clean
```
## Merging
The head is `promote/develop-to-main`, not `develop`, so the
delete-`develop` trap does not apply here. Merge with a merge commit
rather than a squash, per the `main` ruleset.

Why

The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge dotnet test relied on, so dotnet test failed outright on every PR: Testing with VSTest target is no longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and later. This is what was blocking #443, #444, #445, and #446 (all four currently fail on the Run unit tests job).

What

  • Opt UtilitiesTests into native Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP): global.json's test.runner setting, plus UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner/OutputType=Exe on the test project, per the official migration guide.
  • Swap coverlet.collector (VSTest-only) for Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage, the native MTP coverage provider.
  • Bump Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk and the xunit.v3 family to the versions that ship a compatible MTP runtime; the prior xunit.v3 3.2.2 pairing threw a TypeLoadException against the newer platform assembly.
  • Update the validate workflow's dotnet test invocation (--coverage instead of --collect), naming the output file explicitly (--coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml): the extension's default GUID basename is not matched by codecov-action's file finder, so the upload step would otherwise silently find nothing under fail_ci_if_error: false.
  • Fix three ExtensionsTests.cs null-argument tests that were missing the null-forgiving operator a sibling test already used; TreatWarningsAsErrors never reached these under the old VSTest error, which aborted the build before the test project ever compiled.
  • Add global.json to the Solution Items folder and fix Directory.Packages.props's alphabetical ordering.

Verification

Ran locally against .NET 10.0.400: dotnet build (0 warnings/errors), dotnet test --coverage --coverage-output-format cobertura --coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml --results-directory ./coverage (183/183 passed, coverage/coverage.cobertura.xml produced), dotnet csharpier check ., and dotnet format style --verify-no-changes all clean. Reviewed with a local adversarial pass before pushing (fleet local-strict-review).

Known trade-off

Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage ships native instrumentation for win-x64/x86/arm64, linux-x64, linux-musl-x64, and osx-x64 only, no osx-arm64 or linux-arm64. CI runs on ubuntu-latest (x64) and is unaffected, but coverage collection won't work locally on Apple Silicon or Linux arm64 dev machines, where coverlet.collector had none of that restriction. Flagging for awareness rather than blocking on it, since this is the officially recommended MTP coverage path.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests

    • Updated the test runner and testing tools for improved compatibility and execution.
    • Added consistent Cobertura code coverage reporting.
    • Preserved validation of expected compression and decompression errors.
  • Chores

    • Standardized .NET SDK and test environment configuration.
    • Updated test tooling and coverage integration packages.

The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge that dotnet test relied on,
so dotnet test failed outright: 'Testing with VSTest target is no
longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and
later.'
Opt UtilitiesTests into native MTP (global.json test.runner, the
UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner project property) and swap
coverlet.collector, a VSTest-only collector, for the native
Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage provider. Bump
Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk and the xunit.v3 family to the versions that
ship a compatible Microsoft.Testing.Platform runtime; the prior
xunit.v3 3.2.2 pairing threw a TypeLoadException against the newer
platform assembly. Update the validate workflow's dotnet test
invocation to match (--coverage instead of --collect), naming the
output file explicitly: the extension's default GUID basename is not
matched by codecov-action's file finder, so the upload step would
otherwise silently find nothing under fail_ci_if_error: false.
Also fixes three ExtensionsTests.cs null-argument tests that were
missing the null-forgiving operator its sibling test already used;
TreatWarningsAsErrors never reached these under the old VSTest error,
which aborted the build before compiling the test project.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The test suite now uses Microsoft Testing Platform, updated xUnit tooling, and native code coverage. CI writes a named Cobertura report. Null-input tests suppress nullable warnings while preserving their exception assertions.

Changes

Testing platform migration

Layer / File(s)Summary
Platform and package configuration
global.json, Directory.Packages.props, Utilities.slnx
The solution selects Microsoft Testing Platform and updates the testing and coverage package versions.
Test runner project configuration
UtilitiesTests/UtilitiesTests.csproj
The test project enables the native runner and uses Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage instead of coverlet.collector.
Coverage workflow and test compatibility
.github/workflows/validate-task.yml, UtilitiesTests/ExtensionsTests.cs
CI writes ./coverage/coverage.cobertura.xml. Null-input tests suppress nullable analysis before calling the tested extensions.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~15 minutes

Merge Risk:🟡 Moderate · up to 9efb2

The new global.json currently fails the repository's formatting check, which blocks the validation workflow; the PR is not merge-ready until the line endings are corrected or the failure is explicitly accepted.

High-Level Assessment

The native Microsoft.Testing.Platform migration is the appropriate long-term fix for .NET 10. Pinning an older SDK would only defer the incompatibility, while retaining Coverlet would preserve a VSTest-only dependency; explicit coverage naming is also preferable to customizing Codecov discovery around generated GUID filenames.

The MTP migration is coherent across project config, package versions, and CI invocation, and the diffs show no remaining inconsistencies or broken references.

Review details

  • Comments generated: 0 new
  • Review effort level: Lite

Matches the PrivateAssets treatment already used for coverlet.collector
and xunit.analyzers, per Copilot review on PR #447. IncludeAssets keeps
'compile', unlike coverlet.collector: the MTP self-registration code
generated for the test project references this extension's types
directly, so excluding compile assets breaks the build.

## Why
Same regression as #447, on `main` this time (per
`.github/dependabot.yml`, `main` and `develop` are kept current
independently). The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge `dotnet test`
relied on, so `dotnet test` failed outright: `Testing with VSTest target
is no longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and
later.` This is what was blocking #443 and #444 (both currently fail on
the `Run unit tests job`).
## What
Identical fix to #447, cherry-picked (the relevant files were
byte-identical between `main` and `develop` before this PR):
- Opt `UtilitiesTests` into native Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP) via
`global.json`'s `test.runner` setting plus
`UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner`/`OutputType=Exe`.
- Swap `coverlet.collector` (VSTest-only) for
`Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage` (native MTP coverage),
marked test-only via `PrivateAssets`.
- Bump
`Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk`/`xunit.v3`/`xunit.analyzers`/`xunit.runner.visualstudio`
to versions with a compatible MTP runtime.
- Update the validate workflow's `dotnet test` invocation (`--coverage`
instead of `--collect`, with an explicit `--coverage-output` filename
codecov-action can discover).
- Fix three `ExtensionsTests.cs` null-argument tests missing a
null-forgiving operator.
- `global.json` in CRLF (this repo's `.editorconfig` convention) and
added to Solution Items.
## Verification
Already went through #447's full review loop (local adversarial review,
Copilot, CodeRabbit, all findings fixed) on identical content.
Re-verified independently on this branch: `dotnet build` (0
warnings/errors), `dotnet test --coverage --coverage-output-format
cobertura --coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml --results-directory
./coverage` (183/183 passed), `dotnet csharpier check .`, `dotnet format
style --verify-no-changes`, and `editorconfig-checker` on `global.json`
all clean.

Promotes the hub resync (#451) to `main`.
## Why this is a `promote/` branch rather than `develop` itself
`main` carried its own copies of work `develop` had done independently:
the Microsoft.Testing.Platform migration (#448 against #447) and an

Why

The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge dotnet test relied on, so dotnet test failed outright on every PR: Testing with VSTest target is no longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and later. This is what was blocking #443, #444, #445, and #446 (all four currently fail on the Run unit tests job).

What

  • Opt UtilitiesTests into native Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP): global.json's test.runner setting, plus UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner/OutputType=Exe on the test project, per the official migration guide.
  • Swap coverlet.collector (VSTest-only) for Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage, the native MTP coverage provider.
  • Bump Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk and the xunit.v3 family to the versions that ship a compatible MTP runtime; the prior xunit.v3 3.2.2 pairing threw a TypeLoadException against the newer platform assembly.
  • Update the validate workflow's dotnet test invocation (--coverage instead of --collect), naming the output file explicitly (--coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml): the extension's default GUID basename is not matched by codecov-action's file finder, so the upload step would otherwise silently find nothing under fail_ci_if_error: false.
  • Fix three ExtensionsTests.cs null-argument tests that were missing the null-forgiving operator a sibling test already used; TreatWarningsAsErrors never reached these under the old VSTest error, which aborted the build before the test project ever compiled.
  • Add global.json to the Solution Items folder and fix Directory.Packages.props's alphabetical ordering.

Verification

Ran locally against .NET 10.0.400: dotnet build (0 warnings/errors), dotnet test --coverage --coverage-output-format cobertura --coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml --results-directory ./coverage (183/183 passed, coverage/coverage.cobertura.xml produced), dotnet csharpier check ., and dotnet format style --verify-no-changes all clean. Reviewed with a local adversarial pass before pushing (fleet local-strict-review).

Known trade-off

Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage ships native instrumentation for win-x64/x86/arm64, linux-x64, linux-musl-x64, and osx-x64 only, no osx-arm64 or linux-arm64. CI runs on ubuntu-latest (x64) and is unaffected, but coverage collection won't work locally on Apple Silicon or Linux arm64 dev machines, where coverlet.collector had none of that restriction. Flagging for awareness rather than blocking on it, since this is the officially recommended MTP coverage path.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests

    • Updated the test runner and testing tools for improved compatibility and execution.
    • Added consistent Cobertura code coverage reporting.
    • Preserved validation of expected compression and decompression errors.
  • Chores

    • Standardized .NET SDK and test environment configuration.
    • Updated test tooling and coverage integration packages.

The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge that dotnet test relied on,
so dotnet test failed outright: 'Testing with VSTest target is no
longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and
later.'
Opt UtilitiesTests into native MTP (global.json test.runner, the
UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner project property) and swap
coverlet.collector, a VSTest-only collector, for the native
Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage provider. Bump
Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk and the xunit.v3 family to the versions that
ship a compatible Microsoft.Testing.Platform runtime; the prior
xunit.v3 3.2.2 pairing threw a TypeLoadException against the newer
platform assembly. Update the validate workflow's dotnet test
invocation to match (--coverage instead of --collect), naming the
output file explicitly: the extension's default GUID basename is not
matched by codecov-action's file finder, so the upload step would
otherwise silently find nothing under fail_ci_if_error: false.
Also fixes three ExtensionsTests.cs null-argument tests that were
missing the null-forgiving operator its sibling test already used;
TreatWarningsAsErrors never reached these under the old VSTest error,
which aborted the build before compiling the test project.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The test suite now uses Microsoft Testing Platform, updated xUnit tooling, and native code coverage. CI writes a named Cobertura report. Null-input tests suppress nullable warnings while preserving their exception assertions.

Changes

Testing platform migration

Layer / File(s)Summary
Platform and package configuration
global.json, Directory.Packages.props, Utilities.slnx
The solution selects Microsoft Testing Platform and updates the testing and coverage package versions.
Test runner project configuration
UtilitiesTests/UtilitiesTests.csproj
The test project enables the native runner and uses Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage instead of coverlet.collector.
Coverage workflow and test compatibility
.github/workflows/validate-task.yml, UtilitiesTests/ExtensionsTests.cs
CI writes ./coverage/coverage.cobertura.xml. Null-input tests suppress nullable analysis before calling the tested extensions.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~15 minutes

Merge Risk:🟡 Moderate · up to 9efb2

The new global.json currently fails the repository's formatting check, which blocks the validation workflow; the PR is not merge-ready until the line endings are corrected or the failure is explicitly accepted.

High-Level Assessment

The native Microsoft.Testing.Platform migration is the appropriate long-term fix for .NET 10. Pinning an older SDK would only defer the incompatibility, while retaining Coverlet would preserve a VSTest-only dependency; explicit coverage naming is also preferable to customizing Codecov discovery around generated GUID filenames.

🟢 Approval recommended

The MTP migration is coherent across project config, package versions, and CI invocation, and the diffs show no remaining inconsistencies or broken references.

Review details
  • Files reviewed: 6/6 changed files
  • Comments generated: 0 new
  • Review effort level: Lite

Matches the PrivateAssets treatment already used for coverlet.collector
and xunit.analyzers, per Copilot review on PR #447. IncludeAssets keeps
'compile', unlike coverlet.collector: the MTP self-registration code
generated for the test project references this extension's types
directly, so excluding compile assets breaks the build.

## Why
Same regression as #447, on `main` this time (per
`.github/dependabot.yml`, `main` and `develop` are kept current
independently). The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge `dotnet test`
relied on, so `dotnet test` failed outright: `Testing with VSTest target
is no longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and
later.` This is what was blocking #443 and #444 (both currently fail on
the `Run unit tests job`).
## What
Identical fix to #447, cherry-picked (the relevant files were
byte-identical between `main` and `develop` before this PR):
- Opt `UtilitiesTests` into native Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP) via
`global.json`'s `test.runner` setting plus
`UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner`/`OutputType=Exe`.
- Swap `coverlet.collector` (VSTest-only) for
`Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage` (native MTP coverage),
marked test-only via `PrivateAssets`.
- Bump
`Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk`/`xunit.v3`/`xunit.analyzers`/`xunit.runner.visualstudio`
to versions with a compatible MTP runtime.
- Update the validate workflow's `dotnet test` invocation (`--coverage`
instead of `--collect`, with an explicit `--coverage-output` filename
codecov-action can discover).
- Fix three `ExtensionsTests.cs` null-argument tests missing a
null-forgiving operator.
- `global.json` in CRLF (this repo's `.editorconfig` convention) and
added to Solution Items.
## Verification
Already went through #447's full review loop (local adversarial review,
Copilot, CodeRabbit, all findings fixed) on identical content.
Re-verified independently on this branch: `dotnet build` (0
warnings/errors), `dotnet test --coverage --coverage-output-format
cobertura --coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml --results-directory
./coverage` (183/183 passed), `dotnet csharpier check .`, `dotnet format
style --verify-no-changes`, and `editorconfig-checker` on `global.json`
all clean.

Promotes the hub resync (#451) to `main`.
## Why this is a `promote/` branch rather than `develop` itself
`main` carried its own copies of work `develop` had done independently:
the Microsoft.Testing.Platform migration (#448 against #447) and an
AwesomeAssertions bump (#450 against #449). Combined with the CRLF-to-LF
renormalization, `develop -> main` conflicts on seven paths, and
`develop`'s `required_linear_history` plus its PR ruleset forbid
resolving them on `develop`. This is the documented remedy: resolve on a
throwaway branch off `main`, then open that into `main`.
## The resolution is provably exactly `develop`
Every conflict was resolved to `develop`'s side, and the result is
byte-identical to `develop`'s tree:
```text
merged tree 5035943
develop tree 5035943
```
Each was confirmed lossless before `develop` was taken, per the
documented check:
| Path | Why taking `develop` drops nothing |
| --- | --- |
| `global.json` | Content-identical modulo EOL. `main` added it CRLF,
`develop` renormalized it. |
| `UtilitiesTests/UtilitiesTests.csproj` | Content-identical modulo EOL.
|
| `UtilitiesTests/ExtensionsTests.cs` | Content-identical modulo EOL. |
| `Directory.Packages.props` | Differs in one line, the coverage
extension, where `develop` is the newer 18.10.0 against `main`'s 18.9.0.
|
| `Utilities.slnx` | `main`'s extra entries are a duplicate
`dependabot.yml`, a `Data/` folder naming three files this repository
does not contain, and the two workflow tasks `develop` deleted because
the hub now hosts them. Verified each path is absent on `develop`, and
that `dependabot.yml` is still listed there under GitHub Actions. |
| `.github/workflows/build-release-task.yml` | Deleted on `develop` per
its `retire` disposition. |
| `.github/workflows/validate-task.yml` | Deleted on `develop`, which
now calls the hub-hosted validator by pin. |
## Verification
Run against this branch's tree, not inferred from #451:
```text
dotnet build 0 warnings, 0 errors
dotnet csharpier check . 43 files, clean
dotnet format style --verify-no-changes clean
dotnet test (MTP + coverage) 183/183 passed
markdownlint-cli2 '**/*.md' 48 files, 0 issues
actionlint clean
editorconfig-checker clean
repo_gate.py eol, eol-coverage, sha-pin all clean
prose_lint.py --diff origin/main clean
```
## Merging
The head is `promote/develop-to-main`, not `develop`, so the
delete-`develop` trap does not apply here. Merge with a merge commit
rather than a squash, per the `main` ruleset.

Why

The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge dotnet test relied on, so dotnet test failed outright on every PR: Testing with VSTest target is no longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and later. This is what was blocking #443, #444, #445, and #446 (all four currently fail on the Run unit tests job).

What

  • Opt UtilitiesTests into native Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP): global.json's test.runner setting, plus UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner/OutputType=Exe on the test project, per the official migration guide.
  • Swap coverlet.collector (VSTest-only) for Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage, the native MTP coverage provider.
  • Bump Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk and the xunit.v3 family to the versions that ship a compatible MTP runtime; the prior xunit.v3 3.2.2 pairing threw a TypeLoadException against the newer platform assembly.
  • Update the validate workflow's dotnet test invocation (--coverage instead of --collect), naming the output file explicitly (--coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml): the extension's default GUID basename is not matched by codecov-action's file finder, so the upload step would otherwise silently find nothing under fail_ci_if_error: false.
  • Fix three ExtensionsTests.cs null-argument tests that were missing the null-forgiving operator a sibling test already used; TreatWarningsAsErrors never reached these under the old VSTest error, which aborted the build before the test project ever compiled.
  • Add global.json to the Solution Items folder and fix Directory.Packages.props's alphabetical ordering.

Verification

Ran locally against .NET 10.0.400: dotnet build (0 warnings/errors), dotnet test --coverage --coverage-output-format cobertura --coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml --results-directory ./coverage (183/183 passed, coverage/coverage.cobertura.xml produced), dotnet csharpier check ., and dotnet format style --verify-no-changes all clean. Reviewed with a local adversarial pass before pushing (fleet local-strict-review).

Known trade-off

Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage ships native instrumentation for win-x64/x86/arm64, linux-x64, linux-musl-x64, and osx-x64 only, no osx-arm64 or linux-arm64. CI runs on ubuntu-latest (x64) and is unaffected, but coverage collection won't work locally on Apple Silicon or Linux arm64 dev machines, where coverlet.collector had none of that restriction. Flagging for awareness rather than blocking on it, since this is the officially recommended MTP coverage path.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests

    • Updated the test runner and testing tools for improved compatibility and execution.
    • Added consistent Cobertura code coverage reporting.
    • Preserved validation of expected compression and decompression errors.
  • Chores

    • Standardized .NET SDK and test environment configuration.
    • Updated test tooling and coverage integration packages.

The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge that dotnet test relied on,
so dotnet test failed outright: 'Testing with VSTest target is no
longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and
later.'
Opt UtilitiesTests into native MTP (global.json test.runner, the
UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner project property) and swap
coverlet.collector, a VSTest-only collector, for the native
Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage provider. Bump
Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk and the xunit.v3 family to the versions that
ship a compatible Microsoft.Testing.Platform runtime; the prior
xunit.v3 3.2.2 pairing threw a TypeLoadException against the newer
platform assembly. Update the validate workflow's dotnet test
invocation to match (--coverage instead of --collect), naming the
output file explicitly: the extension's default GUID basename is not
matched by codecov-action's file finder, so the upload step would
otherwise silently find nothing under fail_ci_if_error: false.
Also fixes three ExtensionsTests.cs null-argument tests that were
missing the null-forgiving operator its sibling test already used;
TreatWarningsAsErrors never reached these under the old VSTest error,
which aborted the build before compiling the test project.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The test suite now uses Microsoft Testing Platform, updated xUnit tooling, and native code coverage. CI writes a named Cobertura report. Null-input tests suppress nullable warnings while preserving their exception assertions.

Changes

Testing platform migration

Layer / File(s)Summary
Platform and package configuration
global.json, Directory.Packages.props, Utilities.slnx
The solution selects Microsoft Testing Platform and updates the testing and coverage package versions.
Test runner project configuration
UtilitiesTests/UtilitiesTests.csproj
The test project enables the native runner and uses Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage instead of coverlet.collector.
Coverage workflow and test compatibility
.github/workflows/validate-task.yml, UtilitiesTests/ExtensionsTests.cs
CI writes ./coverage/coverage.cobertura.xml. Null-input tests suppress nullable analysis before calling the tested extensions.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~15 minutes

Merge Risk:🟡 Moderate · up to 9efb2

The new global.json currently fails the repository's formatting check, which blocks the validation workflow; the PR is not merge-ready until the line endings are corrected or the failure is explicitly accepted.

High-Level Assessment

The native Microsoft.Testing.Platform migration is the appropriate long-term fix for .NET 10. Pinning an older SDK would only defer the incompatibility, while retaining Coverlet would preserve a VSTest-only dependency; explicit coverage naming is also preferable to customizing Codecov discovery around generated GUID filenames.

The changes align with the stated .NET 10 migration goal and appear internally consistent, with only a small optional packaging hygiene suggestion noted.

Pull request overview

Migrates UtilitiesTests to run under native Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10, updating coverage collection and CI invocation so dotnet test works again with the .NET 10 SDK changes.

Changes:

  • Opt UtilitiesTests into Microsoft.Testing.Platform via global.json and test-project settings (UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner, OutputType=Exe).
  • Replace VSTest-based coverage collection (coverlet.collector) with Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage, and update CI to use dotnet test --coverage with an explicit Cobertura output name.
  • Update relevant test/tooling package versions and fix nullable warnings in null-argument tests.

The MTP migration is coherent across project config, package versions, and CI invocation, and the diffs show no remaining inconsistencies or broken references.

Review details

  • Comments generated: 0 new
  • Review effort level: Lite

Matches the PrivateAssets treatment already used for coverlet.collector
and xunit.analyzers, per Copilot review on PR #447. IncludeAssets keeps
'compile', unlike coverlet.collector: the MTP self-registration code
generated for the test project references this extension's types
directly, so excluding compile assets breaks the build.

## Why
Same regression as #447, on `main` this time (per
`.github/dependabot.yml`, `main` and `develop` are kept current
independently). The .NET 10 SDK dropped the VSTest bridge `dotnet test`
relied on, so `dotnet test` failed outright: `Testing with VSTest target
is no longer supported by Microsoft.Testing.Platform on .NET 10 SDK and
later.` This is what was blocking #443 and #444 (both currently fail on
the `Run unit tests job`).
## What
Identical fix to #447, cherry-picked (the relevant files were
byte-identical between `main` and `develop` before this PR):
- Opt `UtilitiesTests` into native Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP) via
`global.json`'s `test.runner` setting plus
`UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner`/`OutputType=Exe`.
- Swap `coverlet.collector` (VSTest-only) for
`Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage` (native MTP coverage),
marked test-only via `PrivateAssets`.
- Bump
`Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk`/`xunit.v3`/`xunit.analyzers`/`xunit.runner.visualstudio`
to versions with a compatible MTP runtime.
- Update the validate workflow's `dotnet test` invocation (`--coverage`
instead of `--collect`, with an explicit `--coverage-output` filename
codecov-action can discover).
- Fix three `ExtensionsTests.cs` null-argument tests missing a
null-forgiving operator.
- `global.json` in CRLF (this repo's `.editorconfig` convention) and
added to Solution Items.
## Verification
Already went through #447's full review loop (local adversarial review,
Copilot, CodeRabbit, all findings fixed) on identical content.
Re-verified independently on this branch: `dotnet build` (0
warnings/errors), `dotnet test --coverage --coverage-output-format
cobertura --coverage-output coverage.cobertura.xml --results-directory
./coverage` (183/183 passed), `dotnet csharpier check .`, `dotnet format
style --verify-no-changes`, and `editorconfig-checker` on `global.json`
all clean.

Promotes the hub resync (#451) to `main`.
## Why this is a `promote/` branch rather than `develop` itself
`main` carried its own copies of work `develop` had done independently:
the Microsoft.Testing.Platform migration (#448 against #447) and an
AwesomeAssertions bump (#450 against #449). Combined with the CRLF-to-LF
renormalization, `develop -> main` conflicts on seven paths, and
`develop`'s `required_linear_history` plus its PR ruleset forbid
resolving them on `develop`. This is the documented remedy: resolve on a
throwaway branch off `main`, then open that into `main`.
## The resolution is provably exactly `develop`
Every conflict was resolved to `develop`'s side, and the result is
byte-identical to `develop`'s tree:
```text
merged tree 5035943
develop tree 5035943
```
Each was confirmed lossless before `develop` was taken, per the
documented check:
| Path | Why taking `develop` drops nothing |
| --- | --- |
| `global.json` | Content-identical modulo EOL. `main` added it CRLF,
`develop` renormalized it. |
| `UtilitiesTests/UtilitiesTests.csproj` | Content-identical modulo EOL.
|
| `UtilitiesTests/ExtensionsTests.cs` | Content-identical modulo EOL. |
| `Directory.Packages.props` | Differs in one line, the coverage
extension, where `develop` is the newer 18.10.0 against `main`'s 18.9.0.
|
| `Utilities.slnx` | `main`'s extra entries are a duplicate
`dependabot.yml`, a `Data/` folder naming three files this repository
does not contain, and the two workflow tasks `develop` deleted because
the hub now hosts them. Verified each path is absent on `develop`, and
that `dependabot.yml` is still listed there under GitHub Actions. |
| `.github/workflows/build-release-task.yml` | Deleted on `develop` per
its `retire` disposition. |
| `.github/workflows/validate-task.yml` | Deleted on `develop`, which
now calls the hub-hosted validator by pin. |
## Verification
Run against this branch's tree, not inferred from #451:
```text
dotnet build 0 warnings, 0 errors
dotnet csharpier check . 43 files, clean
dotnet format style --verify-no-changes clean
dotnet test (MTP + coverage) 183/183 passed
markdownlint-cli2 '**/*.md' 48 files, 0 issues
actionlint clean
editorconfig-checker clean
repo_gate.py eol, eol-coverage, sha-pin all clean
prose_lint.py --diff origin/main clean
```
## Merging
The head is `promote/develop-to-main`, not `develop`, so the
delete-`develop` trap does not apply here. Merge with a merge commit
rather than a squash, per the `main` ruleset.
<!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai
