Expected behavior

Location 2 - Code Editor Right click on Method or Code in Code Editor menu item to "Go to test" Opens the Tests Class at the test method for that method

Hopefully, I am not coming off as needy on these. I really appreciate the work you have done. These ideas are just things I have been thinking would be great additions. Simple things (hopefully) that speed up workflow.

Thanks

Would need a bit of extra thought. Currently we just let the user pick the project to add the test to. We don't have any intrinsic knowledge of where the tests should be for a given project. It would need to be inferred based on which project the user picks, stored and exposed in settings. Also the "go to method" would need to be able to dynamically examine the test to figure out when the method is invoked. Would be doable with Roslyn APIs...

It certainly would be useful, and ideas are always appreciated. Not sure when I would be able to get to this one, but pull requests are always a fast way to get something in. :)

I didn't realize the complexity. It would be nice to have but not any kind of critical issue. -Thanks
