AppVeyor's a canary, make it sing. #3894

Open bclothier opened 6 years ago

As evidenced by recent changes and failed attempts to fix in PR #3873 and #3890 , we have had cases where things will pass locally but fail up there.

It is clear that the AV is a canary in the coal mine. At the present when a build error, we only have most brief and generic error output to the console.

We should consider making a global handler so that whenever a test fails, more data is written out t the console using TestContext.Out object to provide the sufficient context and thus help simplify troubleshooting.

Note to myself -- create a new unit test for CreateObject in light of changes to the PR #3890 which we modified to avoid AV failing as we need to ensure that AV tests the same way we test.
