How To Run GitHub Actions - .NET Framework Unit Test - github

Question

I have a Sample Solution with a simple .NET Framework 4.8 Library Project.
this Solution has also a Unit Test Project for this Library. This Test Project has a Test which will succeed and one Test which will fail.
Now i want to upload this to github and it should Run the Test Project. But i cant figure out, how i can run the Test Project. All Tutorials are for .NET Core 5+
my actual workflow file looks like this:
name: .NET Framework Desktop
on:
push:
branches: [ main ]
pull_request:
branches: [ main ]
jobs:
build:
strategy:
matrix:
configuration: [Release]
runs-on: self-hosted # For a list of available runner types, refer to
# https://help.github.com/en/actions/reference/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#jobsjob_idruns-on
env:
Solution_Name: SelfHostedPDMTest.sln # Replace with your solution name, i.e. MyWpfApp.sln.
Test_Project_Path: TestProjectTest.csproj # Replace with the path to your test project, i.e. MyWpfApp.Tests\MyWpfApp.Tests.csproj.
Wap_Project_Directory: your-wap-project-directory-name # Replace with the Wap project directory relative to the solution, i.e. MyWpfApp.Package.
Wap_Project_Path: your-wap-project-path # Replace with the path to your Wap project, i.e. MyWpf.App.Package\MyWpfApp.Package.wapproj.
steps:
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout#v3
with:
fetch-depth: 0
# Install the .NET Core workload
- name: Install .NET
uses: actions/setup-dotnet#v2
with:
dotnet-version: 5.0.x
# Add MSBuild to the PATH: https://github.com/microsoft/setup-msbuild
- name: Setup MSBuild.exe
uses: microsoft/setup-msbuild#v1.0.2
# Execute all unit tests in the solution
- name: Execute unit tests
run: dotnet test
# Restore the application to populate the obj folder with RuntimeIdentifiers
- name: Restore the application
run: msbuild $env:Solution_Name /t:Restore /p:Configuration=$env:Configuration
env:
Configuration: ${{ matrix.configuration }}
Appx_Bundle_Platforms: x86|x64
Appx_Package_Build_Mode: StoreUpload
This is a sample Workflow from github.
i know the selected .net version is 5.0.x but 4.8.x is not possible.
and also dotnet test would run a .NET Core Test and not a .NET Framework Test.
Maybe someone has a good workflow file or can help me to start?
