Adoption guide

New xUnit.net test suites targeting supported modern .NET versions, or teams deliberately migrating to v3.

Unit Testing guide

Why it appears in the guide: The current xUnit.net package for modern .NET test projects, with its v3 test platform integration. Trade-off: v3 uses a different package and runner model than xUnit v2; check the migration guidance and CI adapter before standardizing.

Compatibility metadata lists 2 target frameworks; confirm the exact target used by your application.

How to read this guidance

Sources: published NuGet v3 registry metadata and explicit NuBrowse editorial guides. Refresh: package metadata is refreshed from NuGet when the page loads. Limit: this is not a security, legal or compatibility guarantee; validate the selected version in your project.

Useful next steps
