Description
Hello, I have a test project on .net6 and execute tests from .Net Test Explorer (v0.7.8) in VS code (1.95.3).
After migrating to .net8 tests execute from .Net Test Explorer as before, but if running test in debug mode debugger is not launching at all.
Execution environment:
1. launch.json targets /bin/Debug/net8.0/MyTestProject.dll
2. .NET SDKs (8.0.404) - installed after deleting all other versions
3. .NET runtimes installed:
Microsoft.AspNetCore.App 8.0.11,
Microsoft.NETCore.App 8.0.11,
Microsoft.WindowsDesktop.App 8.0.11
2. .Net Test Explorer (v0.7.8)
4. VS code (1.95.3)
5. NUnit (4.2.2)
6. NUnit3TestAdapter (4.6.0)
7. NUnit.Analyzers (4.4.0)
8. Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk (17.12.0)
9. Windows 11
.Net Test Explorer output:

Thanks in advance for any sort of assist!

Research direction
Start with the launch.json target /bin/Debug/net8.0/MyTestProject.dll and the .Net Test Explorer output, then reproduce the difference between the reported .NET 6 and .NET 8 projects. Compare the debug and normal test-launch paths using the listed VS Code, extension, SDK, NUnit, and adapter versions; done means an .NET 8 test starts under the debugger.
