MTP Hot Reload for Iterative Test Fixing
Set up and use Microsoft Testing Platform hot reload to rapidly iterate fixes on failing tests without rebuilding between each change.
When to Use
- User has one or more failing tests and wants to iterate fixes quickly
- User wants to avoid rebuild overhead while fixing test code or production code
- User asks about hot reload for tests or speeding up the test-fix loop
- User needs to set up MTP hot reload in their project
When Not to Use
- User needs to write new tests from scratch (use general coding assistance)
- User needs to diagnose why a test is failing (use diagnostic skills)
- User wants Visual Studio Test Explorer hot reload (different feature, built into VS)
- Project uses VSTest -- hot reload requires Microsoft Testing Platform (MTP)
- User needs CI/CD pipeline configuration
