What it does

  • Use a separate test project with naming convention [ProjectName].Tests
  • Reference Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk, xunit, and xunit.runner.visualstudio packages
  • Create test classes that match the classes being tested (e.g., CalculatorTests for Calculator)
  • Use .NET SDK test commands: dotnet test for running tests
  • No test class attributes required (unlike MSTest/NUnit)
  • Use fact-based tests with [Fact] attribute for simple tests
  • Follow the Arrange-Act-Assert (AAA) pattern
