Justin ChungandCopilot 7901fec9bd Move MSIX configuration coverage to elevated tests
Keep xUnit focused on pure three-scope merge and union behavior. Move the real LocalMachine write, removal, and ACL checks into the existing elevated execution-policy Pester suite, where the test runs only with MSIX package identity.

xUnit Tests

The folder contains xUnit tests for PowerShell Core project.

Running xUnit Tests

Go to the top level of the PowerShell repository and run full set of tests: Start-PSxUnit inside a self-hosted copy of PowerShell.

Go to the test project folder and run dotnet test -c Release.

Use filter parameter to run only needed tests:

dotnet test -c Release --filter "FullyQualifiedName~UnitTest1   # Runs tests which have UnitTest1 in FullyQualifiedName
dotnet test --filter Name~TestMethod1   # Runs tests whose name contains TestMethod1

Creating xUnit Tests

Keep the folder structure that is for Pester ../../test/powershell and C# files ../../src.

Use namespace names started with PSTests.

namespace PSTests.YourNameSpace
{
}
