| ## Building Individual Tests | ||
|
|

| During development there are many instances where building an individual test is fast and necessary. All of the necessary tools to build are under `coreclr`. It is possible to use `runtime/.dotnet/dotnet msbuild` as you would normally use MSBuild with a few caveats. | ||

~/runtime/dotnet is a script right?

Yes. I'll make it more clear.

FYI @ViktorHofer who is updating these properties to be consistent across partitions... this will need to be updated as part of your change.

Thanks for doing this @BruceForstall . I hope we continue to tune and improve these docs - they're important ... |
|
@danmosemsft I think they still need more work. Mac builds still don't work (#1461). And we need some of the suggestions in #839 implemented to simplify dev workflow. The docs don't describe the suggestion in #839 that, for coreclr anyway, you build everything Release before iterating on coreclr in debug/checked. So either that's no longer necessary, or not adequately described. |
|
@BruceForstall it looks like @jkoritzinsky will make a relevant update in #1826 Aside from that, whenever I'm aware they're incorrect and I feel qualified to improve them, I hope to do so 😃 |
