The Test List as a Shared Resource

The test list file is shared between SkylineTester, Run-Tests.ps1, and Visual Studio debugger:

• Developer selects tests in SkylineTester → LLM runs same tests with -UseTestList
• LLM updates test list with -UpdateTestList → Developer sees tests pre-checked in SkylineTester
• VS debugger can be configured to read TestRunner.exe tests from this file

See skylinetester-guide.md for details.
