migrate-vstest-to-mtp
Migrates .NET test projects from VSTest to Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP). Use when user asks to "migrate to MTP", "switch from VSTest", "enable Microsoft.Testing.Platform", "use MTP runner", set OutputType=Exe only for test projects in Directory.Build.props, or mentions EnableMSTestRunner, EnableNUnitRunner, or UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner. USE FOR: MTP behavioral differences vs VSTest (exit code 8, zero tests discovered, --ignore-exit-code, TESTINGPLATFORM_EXITCODE_IGNORE); centralizing MTP properties and OutputType=Exe on test projects via MSBuildProjectName, not IsTestProject. Supports MSTest, NUnit, xUnit.net v2 (via YTest.MTP.XUnit2), and xUnit.net v3. Covers runner enablement, CLI argument and filter translation (--filter-class/--filter-trait/--filter-query), global.json config, CI/CD updates, and extension packages. DO NOT USE FOR: migrating between test frameworks (MSTest/xUnit/NUnit), xUnit.net v2 to v3 API migration, MSTest version upgrades, TFM upgrades, or UWP/WinUI
