Pull Request Review: TUnit 1.6.0 Dependency Update

Overview

This PR updates TUnit packages from 1.5.80 to 1.6.0 across template files and central package management. The update is generated by Renovate Bot and includes a minor version bump.

✅ Positive Observations

1. Consistent Version Updates: All TUnit-related packages are updated uniformly across:

   • TUnit (core)
   • TUnit.Core
   • TUnit.Assertions
   • TUnit.Assertions.FSharp
   • TUnit.Playwright

2. Centralized Management: The Directory.Packages.props file correctly updates versions in one location, which will propagate to all projects using Central Package Management.

3. Template Consistency: All template project files (.csproj, .fsproj, .vbproj) are updated to reference the new version, ensuring users creating new projects from templates will use the latest version.

4. Clean Diff: The changes are surgical and only touch version numbers - no unintended modifications.

5. Automerge Enabled: Appropriate for automated dependency updates with proper CI validation.

📝 Considerations

1. Release Notes Context: According to the PR description, v1.6.0 introduces:

   • TUnit.AspNetCore (new feature from PR feat: TUnit.AspNetCore #4123)
   • This is a minor version bump, indicating backward-compatible new functionality

2. Testing Verification: Since this is a self-referential update (TUnit updating its own TUnit dependencies for templates), ensure:

   • Template generation tests pass
   • Integration tests with the new version work correctly
   • The new TUnit.AspNetCore package doesn't introduce breaking changes to existing templates

3. Missing Package: The PR updates references to TUnit.Playwright in templates, but Directory.Packages.props doesn't show a TUnit.Playwright entry (lines 88-91 show TUnit, TUnit.Core, TUnit.Assertions). This might be intentional if Playwright is managed separately, but worth verifying.
