How do I run specific tests using dotnet test?
I have a large test suite in a .NET Core project. I can use the Test Explorer window to select a few tests to run.
I can also run the whole test suite on the command line with dotnet test
. Is there a way to run only one (or a few) tests on the command line?
With the dotnet version 1.0.0, you have to use the --filter option:
You can filter by DisplayName, FullyQualifiedName and Traits.
Ex:
dotnet test --filter "FullyQualifiedName=YourNamespace.TestClass1.Test1"
Also, these operators are allowed: =, != and ~ (contains).
More info here: docs
Since this question is tagged with xUnit, the command for the dotnet xUnit CLI command is as follows:
dotnet xunit -method FullyQualifiedName
