Release Notes for 3.0.0-pre.20 [2024 July 30]

Today, we’re shipping three new releases:

• xUnit.net Core Framework v3 0.2.0-pre.69 (release notes)
• xUnit.net Analyzers 1.16.0-pre.22 (release notes)
• xUnit.net Visual Studio adapter 3.0.0-pre.20

This is the first prerelease version of the Visual Studio runner which supports running v3 test projects. As always, it will continue to run v1 and v2 test projects. However, due to the minimum framework requirements for xunit.v3.runner.utility, the new minimum supported version of .NET Framework is 4.7.2, even for v1 and v2 test projects. The minimum supported version of .NET remains at 6.0.

As always, we’d like to thank all the users who contributed to the success of xUnit.net through usage, feedback, and code contributions. 🎉
