Contributing to the corefx repo

Required Software

Building

  • Open a Visual Studio Command Prompt.
  • From the root of the repository, type build. This will build everything and run the core tests for the project.
  • Visual Studio Solution (.sln) files exist for related groups of libraries. These can be loaded in Visual Studio and run builds from within Visual Studio.

Testing

  • By default, the core tests are run as part of the build. A test report for the build will be output on the console at the end of a successful build.
  • To view and run the tests for a solution in Visual Studio you need to install xUnit.net runner for Visual Studio.
    • In Visual Studio under Tools->Extensions and Updates, select Online on the left side and search for xUnit. Download the xUnit.net runner for Visual Studio.
    • After downloading and restarting Visual Studio and building the test assemblies, the tests should start to show up in Test Explorer.
