CodeAnt-AI Description

Upgrade FluentAssertions to 8.8.0 for clearer test failures and new assertion features

What Changed

The test assertion library was upgraded from 6.12.1 to 8.8.0, so all tests will run with updated assertion behavior and messages.
Failure output for differing long strings now shows clearer, more readable diffs, making test failures easier to understand.
Exception assertions can be written without supplying a custom message, simplifying tests that assert thrown exceptions.
Adds support for MSTest4 and allows configuring XML-serialization equality checks in assertions, enabling those test scenarios.
The package version was updated centrally, so every project using the shared package list will adopt these assertion changes.

Impact

✅ Clearer test failure messages
✅ Easier exception assertions in tests
✅ MSTest4 support for test projects

Suggestion: If FluentAssertions is a test-only dependency, mark it as private and include explicit asset controls to prevent it being exposed to consuming projects. [best practice]

Why it matters? ⭐

This repository already uses PackageVersion entries with and for test-only packages (see coverlet.* entries). If FluentAssertions is test-only, adding PrivateAssets prevents it from leaking as a transitive dependency to consuming projects — a useful, low-risk best practice that matches the file's existing patterns. It's not merely cosmetic: it prevents accidental consumption and potential version conflicts downstream.

🔒 No security issues identified
⚡ Recommended areas for review Breaking changes / test failures Upgrading FluentAssertions from 6.x to 8.x may introduce API or behavior changes that break existing tests. Verify compilation and run the full test suite to detect failing assertions or changed APIs and update tests accordingly. Transitive compatibility Check compatibility between `FluentAssertions` 8.8.0 and related packages in the central list (notably `FluentAssertions.Json` and `FluentAssertions.Analyzers`). Incompatible analyzer or json package versions can cause build warnings/errors or unexpected assertion behavior.
