Running .NET Core Tests

Details on test metadata can be found in test-configuration.md.

Build All Tests

Build the CoreCLR product
- Unix
- OSX
- Windows
From the root directory run the following command:
- Non-Windows - ./build-test.sh
- Windows - build-test.cmd
- Supply -h for usage flags

Examples

Build all tests priority 2 and higher
- build-test.cmd -priority=2

Build Individual Test

Note: The CoreCLR must be built prior to building an individual test. See first step for building all tests.

Native Test: Build the generated CMake projects
- Projects are auto-generated when the build-test.sh/build-test.cmd script is run
Managed Test: Invoke MSBuild on the project directly
- Non-Windows - All of the necessary tools to build are under coreclr/Tools. It is possible to use coreclr/Tools/MSBuild.dll as you would normally use MSBuild with a few caveats. The coreclr/Tools/msbuild.sh script exists to make the call shorter.
  - Note: Passing /p:__BuildOs=[OSX|Linux] is required.
- Windows - Use Visual Studio Developer command prompt

Examples

Using the dotnet.sh script
- coreclr/dotnet.sh msbuild /maxcpucount coreclr/tests/src/JIT/CodeGenBringUpTests/Array1.csproj /p:__BuildType=Release /p:__BuildOS=OSX
