Description

Current release build script runs unit tests from the source first, then run build for vsix files. Would be good to run unit tests, if possible, on extension installed from vsix going to be released to make sure nothing got missing in final vsix assembly.

Research direction

Start with the release build script and its existing source-based unit-test step, then determine how the generated VSIX can be installed in a test environment. Run the existing unit tests against that installed extension and verify the released package passes without missing files.
