How do I do I execute tests in Debug mode using .Net Core and VSCode?

How do I execute tests in Debug mode using .Net Core and VSCode?

I am currently running the following on the command line:

dotnet Test

However, this is not executing the tests in debug mode.

Do I attach a debugger?

If so... How?

  1. If necessary, convert the test project to be a console app, instead of a library. For example, use

<TargetFramework>netcoreapp2.0</TargetFramework>

  1. Add a main method or function.

    // C#
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
        }
    }

    // F#
    module Program =
        [<EntryPoint>]
        let main(args: string[]) = 0

  1. In the main, call the test that you want to debug.

  2. Run the console application in the debugger (usually pressing F5).

This should have no effect on running dotnet test.
