Unittesting Azure System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Text.Json'

I have a library that retrieves secrets from Azure. I can use it without a problem from a console app, but when I use it from unittest, I get an error:

Test method UnitTests.UnitTest1.TestCredentials threw exception: System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Text.Json, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc7b13ffcd2ddd51' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040) at Common.Credentials.GetDbConnStr(String databaseName) at UnitTests.UnitTest1.TestCredentials()

using System;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Text.Json;
using Azure.Identity;
using Azure.Security.KeyVault.Secrets;

namespace Common
{
    public class Credentials
    {
        public static string GetDbConnStr(string databaseName)
        {
            string keyVaultUrl = "https://cat.vault.azure.net/";
            Console.WriteLine($"Retrieving credentials for {databaseName}");
            var client = new SecretClient(new Uri(keyVaultUrl), new DefaultAzureCredential());
            var res = client.GetSecret("conn");
            return res.Value.Value.ToString() + $"Database={databaseName}";
        }
    }
}

and here is the test:

using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting;
using System;
using System.Net;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using Common;

namespace UnitTests
{
    [TestClass]
    public class UnitTest1
    {
        [TestMethod]
        public void TestCredentials()
        {
            string conn_str = Credentials.GetDbConnStr("test");
        }
    }
}

Note that I can see System.Text.Json.dll in the bin/Debug folder of the test project.

I fixed this issue at my end by installing the nuget package with latest version of System.Text.Json

Thanks to Anand Sowmithiran who posted the comment

Check your versions of Function runtime, .NET, etc. - refer this Github issue

I upgraded System.Text.Json to version 6.0.2 as suggested in the issue and the problem went away.
