dotnet test

Runs dotnet test against a solution, avoiding the two habits that cause unnecessary permission prompts and wasted turns:

1. Never prefix the command with cd. The Bash tool's working directory is already the project root for every call — a leading cd is redundant and (per this project's shell rule) triggers an extra permission prompt for no benefit.
2. Log to one file, read it once. Don't pipe through tail/grep as a second Bash call. Redirect stdout+stderr to a single log file, then use the Read tool on that file (with offset/limit if it's long) instead of issuing more shell commands.

Args

/dotnet-test [solution-path] [Configuration] [--filter <expr>]

• solution-path (optional): path to the .sln, relative to project root. Defaults to src/GlobalStrategy.Core.sln for this repo.
• Configuration (optional): defaults to Debug.
• --filter (optional): forwarded verbatim to dotnet test --filter to scope to a subset of tests (e.g. a single class while iterating).

Any additional flags the caller needs should be appended to the command line as given — this skill only fixes how the command is invoked, not what it is.

Steps

1. Pick the log path: .tmp/dotnet-test.log (gitignored, per .claude/rules/temp_scripts.md).

2. Run, in a single Bash tool call, with dangerouslyDisableSandbox: true (per this project's dotnet-command convention — no permission prompt needed as long as there's no cd):

   dotnet test <solution-path> -c <Configuration> [--filter <expr>] > .tmp/dotnet-test.log 2>&1

   Default:

   dotnet test src/GlobalStrategy.Core.sln -c Debug > .tmp/dotnet-test.log 2>&1

3. Read .tmp/dotnet-test.log with the Read tool. Use offset from the end (or a large limit) for heavy output — don't re-run the command to see more, and don't add a second Bash call to filter it.
4. Report pass/fail/skip counts from what you read, and quote any failing test names and assertion messages.
5. Delete the log when done with it, as a separate Bash call, per the temp-scripts run-then-delete convention.

Notes

• This applies to any solution/project, not just one repo — the log-file + single-Read pattern is the reusable part. The default solution path above is specific to GlobalStrategy; adjust it per-project.
