--junit-output-path CLI argument not being respected
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Pull request overview
This PR fixes a bug where the --junit-output-path CLI argument was being ignored by the JUnit reporter. The issue occurred because IsEnabledAsync() unconditionally overwrote _outputPath after SetOutputPath() had already been called with the CLI argument value.
Key Changes:
- Added a guard condition in
JUnitReporter.IsEnabledAsync()to only set_outputPathfrom environment variable or default when it hasn't been already set via CLI argument - Changed SDK version in global.json from 10.0.101 to 10.0.100

The fix correctly preserves CLI argument values, but there's no test coverage for this priority ordering behavior. The existing tests in TUnit.Engine.Tests/JUnitReporterTests.cs verify environment variable behavior but don't test the interaction between SetOutputPath() and IsEnabledAsync().
Consider adding a test case that verifies:
- CLI argument (via SetOutputPath) takes precedence over environment variable
- CLI argument takes precedence over default path
- Environment variable takes precedence over default path when CLI argument is not set
This would ensure the priority order (CLI > env var > default) is maintained in future changes.

The SDK version has been changed from "10.0.101" to "10.0.100", but this change is not mentioned or explained in the PR description. This appears to be a downgrade from patch version 101 to 100.
If this change is intentional and related to the fix, please document why it's necessary. If it's unrelated to the bug fix, consider reverting this change or explaining the rationale in the PR description to ensure reviewers understand why it's included.
