About this skill
What it does. Converts xUnit v2 package references to a compatible xUnit v3 set, configures executable output and preserves the project's VSTest or Microsoft.Testing.Platform runner. It updates affected test attributes and APIs, then builds and runs tests to check discovery and results.
When to use it. For projects upgrading from xUnit v2 or fixing compilation errors after a v3 package update. It does not cover test-framework conversions or a runner-only migration.
