Hello @@copilot, I noticed that you’re changing an .swr file or any file under src/Package/MSBuild.VSSetup.. Please make sure to validate this change by an experimental VS insertion. This is accomplished by pushing to an exp/* branch, which requires write permissions to this repo. |

Context
Bootstrap-specific test infrastructure was coupled to
UnitTests.Shared, which mixed general test helpers with E2E/bootstrap concerns.This refactor introduces a dedicated shared library for bootstrap/E2E support and updates E2E callers to consume it directly.
Changes Made
New shared library for bootstrap/E2E
src/EndToEndTestSupport/Microsoft.Build.EndToEndTestSupport.csproj.BootStrapMsBuild.propsimportMSBuild.Bootstrapbuild-order dependencyMoved bootstrap-owned types out of UnitTests.Shared
BootstrapLocationAttributeArtifactsLocationAttributeEndToEndTestUtilitieswith:ExecBootstrapedMSBuild(...)RunnerUtilitiesNarrowed UnitTests.Shared scope
RunnerUtilitiesnow retains only non-bootstrap process helpers (ExecMSBuild,RunProcessAndGetOutput, etc.).RunnerUtilities.Updated E2E callers + references
EndToEndTestSupportproject references to 5 test projects:Build.UnitTestsBuildCheck.UnitTestsMSBuild.UnitTestsTasks.UnitTestsBuild.OM.UnitTestsTesting
Existing E2E test projects were updated to compile and run against
EndToEndTestUtilities; no new test infrastructure patterns were introduced.Notes
This keeps bootstrap/E2E ownership centralized and leaves
UnitTests.Sharedfocused on general-purpose test infrastructure.✨ Let Copilot coding agent set things up for you — coding agent works faster and does higher quality work when set up for your repo.
