Description

We can use the launch task "Run Tests" to create second instance of vscode and run tests there (and log results to debug console):

With vscode 1.53.2 this stopped working for me (Debug console stays empty). Our logging (when building + running the extension) could also be affected.

Downgrading vscode fixed it. Also, there are changes around this topic in the release, so its plausible:

I don't know if we need to adapt or create an issue with vscode. I just wanted to bring it up as info.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure with the launch task "Run Tests" in VS Code 1.53.2 and check whether the Debug console remains empty. Review the referenced VS Code issue for related changes, then determine whether the extension needs adaptation or whether the problem belongs upstream; done means test-result logging works again or the required upstream report is clearly identified.
