Description
## Describe the bug
You can see here that `dotnet test` is showing this as `net48`, when it's clearly `net472`. I don't know if this a difference between "the target framework you built with" vs. "the framework we're running with" (because you could say the same thing for `x64` vs. `AnyCPU`).
This is a nitpick for me. Not sure how important it is for other users.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the `dotnet test` output with Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP) for a project targeting `net472`, and compare the displayed framework with the project target. Trace the output entry point and determine whether the shown value represents the built target or the runtime framework; done means the reported version accurately reflects the intended target framework.
