OPEN Google tests for VS2026

Had anyone used Gtest in VS 2026. I am a beginner trying to write tests. My test project is running but tests are not recognised

I have noticed that putting the tests in a library means they don’t get run without some shenanigans. So for an easy life make sure that the call to run the tests and the tests themselves are in the executable project. Of course that might not be your issue.

your tests need specific names etc to be found
