How to build locally?

[thomhurst]

I'd like to build locally but just get compile errors:

Hi @thomhurst,

It's probably easier for you not to install UWP on your machine (required to build MSTest) so I'd recommend you to use .\Build.cmd /p:ProductsToBuild=testing-platform

[thomhurst]

Wonder if it's worth splitting mstest and testing platform into different solutions?

I'll give that build command a go, but doesn't solve my IDE not being able to build it properly :(

There are different slnf you can use already: https://github.com/microsoft/testfx/blob/main/Microsoft.Testing.Platform.slnf

Ah yeah I missed that one. That builds for me, thanks!
