I know this question is asked multiple times, but due to many changes in .NET Core, they become obsolete.

I have simple .NET Core library targeting Core (not Full .NET), now I want to configure Tests project for it.

Both projects compiles without problem, but I could not get tests to show up in Test Explorer in Visual Studio 2015.

Below are project.json files I managed to assemble from multiple documentation sources.

Do you see anything missing, perhaps some dependency?

===================

I am using :

  • Visual Studio 2015 Update 3
  • .NET Core 1.0.0 RC2

MyProject.dll

project.json 

{ "version": "1.0.0-*", "dependencies": { "Microsoft.NETCore.App": { "type": "platform", "version": "1.0.0" } }, "frameworks": { "netcoreapp1.0": { "imports": "dnxcore50" } } }

MyProject.Tests.dll

project.json 

{ "version": "1.0.0-*", "dependencies": { "xunit.runner.dnx": "2.1.0-rc1-build204", "MyProject": "1.0.0-*", "Microsoft.NETCore.App": { "type": "platform", "version": "1.0.0" }, "xunit": "2.2.0-beta4-build3444" }, "frameworks": { "netcoreapp1.0": { "imports": "dnxcore50" } } }

    ".NET Core 1.0.0 RC2"? Are you serious? Now it should be 1.0.3 at least. Commented Dec 12, 2016 at 12:50

In my particular case (At least i don't have issues launching tests from VS or console) xunit related dependencies look like this:

"dotnet-test-xunit": "2.2.0-preview2-build1029", "xunit": "2.2.0-beta2-build3300", "xunit.extensibility.execution": "2.2.0-beta2-build3300", "xunit.runner.visualstudio": "2.2.0-beta2-build1149",

Don't pay attention to spesific versions. I believe xunit.runner.visualstudio package is what you need here

Try to add "testRunner": "xunit" ** to your project.json file. There is a universal approach as well, just run **dotnet new -t xunittest to create brand new xunit project which is being detected in VS for sure and compare the project.json with yours.
