Address review feedback on thomhurst#7071: - SkipTests no longer mutates TestContext while the hook runs. Matches are recorded as pending (first reason wins) and applied when the stage is sealed, only to tests still in the set, so a test that is skipped and then excluded is never modified. A reason set before the stage (e.g. by [Skip]) still wins. - Every predicate and key selector is evaluated before any state changes, so a callback that throws leaves the set unchanged. ExcludeTests already worked this way. - HookRank is now int? (null = not ordered) instead of using 0 as a sentinel, and ranks are applied at seal like skips. The scheduler compares ranks with Nullable.Compare; unranked runs order exactly as before. Documented that OrderTestsBy calls don't compose (last call wins; use a composite key). - _hookExcludedTests is reset at the top of every DiscoverTests call, not only for execution requests.

…hurst#4788) Add [Before/After(TestFiltering)] hooks that run after framework filtering (--treenode-filter, [Explicit]) and before the test session, with a new TestFilteringContext. TestDiscoveryContext ([After(TestDiscovery)]) and TestFilteringContext both gain: - ExcludeTests(predicate): drop tests from the run (not reported) - SkipTests(predicate, reason): report tests as skipped with a reason - OrderTestsBy(key, comparer?): rank tests by key; equal keys keep the default order (class, [NotInParallel(Order)]); [ExecutionPriority] still wins for parallel tests Behaviour: - Discovery-stage exclusions also hide tests from --list-tests/IDE; TestFiltering hooks run for execution requests only - An excluded [DependsOn] target is re-included (logged at Debug); a skipped one skips its dependents - Hook-excluded tests are hidden from TestContext dependency lookups - Contexts are sealed after their stage; [After(TestFiltering)] is read-only - Runs without TestFiltering hooks skip the stage (no extra allocations) Implemented for source-generated and reflection modes, with analyzer support, docs, public API snapshots, and unit/engine/snapshot tests. Also pin patched MessagePack 2.5.303 (GHSA-qhrr-8q5h-9q3h) in TUnit.Aspire.Core and the Aspire test AppHost. Aspire.Hosting 13.6.1 and StreamJsonRpc pull 2.5.302, which fails restore with NU1902; the central 3.x version is not API-compatible with them. Remove once Aspire depends on a patched MessagePack. BREAKING CHANGE: IHookExecutor has two new members, ExecuteBeforeTestFilteringHook and ExecuteAfterTestFilteringHook. Implementers must add them (GenericAbstractExecutor already does). HookType gains TestFiltering, and TestDiscoveryContext.AddTests throws once the [After(TestDiscovery)] hooks have finished.
…ocks.Http Microsoft.Extensions.Http was pinned to 10.0.12 for every target framework, so TUnit.Mocks.Http pulled Microsoft.Extensions.Logging* 10.x into net8.0 and net9.0 consumers, overriding the 8.x/9.x floors that TUnit.Logging.Microsoft, TUnit.Mocks.Logging and TUnit.AspNetCore.Core use. Add an HttpVersion property alongside the existing per-TFM versions: 8.0.1 (net8.0), 9.0.20 (net9.0), 10.0.12 (net10.0).
Revert Directory.Packages.props (per-TFM Microsoft.Extensions.Http) and the MessagePack pins in TUnit.Aspire.Core and the Aspire test AppHost to main. They are unrelated to the TestFiltering hooks and now live in their own PR (branch fix/dependency-version-floors).

…ep overloaded hooks - Run ITestDiscoveryEventReceiver callbacks before [After(TestDiscovery)] hooks so categories, properties and other receiver-set metadata are visible to hooks, including on re-included [DependsOn] targets; shared by normal and streaming discovery. - Reflection mode: drop the (name, type) guards for After(TestFiltering) and After(TestDiscovery) hooks that silently skipped overloads; _registeredMethods already dedups by full signature, matching source-generated mode. - Track tests removed at discovery (including via AddTests) and report/hide them like TestFiltering exclusions. - Document scheduler sort stability, receiver order, and add XML docs. - Tests: overload fixtures for both stages, discovery exclusion with re-included dependency metadata, MutableTestSet Removed tracking.
- Break full ties in every grouping sort by input position, since
List<T>.Sort is unstable and tied tests could swap between runs.
- Document that unranked tests (re-included [DependsOn] targets) start
before ranked tests in the same phase.
- Note that the framework filter runs after [After(TestDiscovery)], so it
can still drop a test a hook skipped.
- Add a keyed [NotInParallel("key")] ordering fixture and engine test.

…ery contexts - AddTests (MutableTestSet.SetTests) now rejects tests that were not discovered in this run, before changing any state, so every test still goes through dependency re-inclusion and registration. Duplicates count once instead of running twice. - Document AddTests as replacing the set with a subset of it. - Unit tests: foreign and null tests are rejected without changes, duplicates collapse, and a second request on the same TestDiscoveryContext starts from a fresh set.

Thanks. Here's how each point is handled:
|
Keyed [NotInParallel("key")] tests with different keys can overlap, so
[ExecutionPriority] now sorts before the OrderTestsBy rank in the keyed
and constrained parallel group sorts, matching the parallel sort. Within
a priority the rank still decides.
Document ExecutionPriority in the equal-key tie-break and the keyed-test
precedence in hooks.md and the OrderTestsBy XML docs.
Only apply the ordering fixtures' hooks when the run holds the whole
class, so a single-test filter no longer fails their fixed-prefix
assertions. Add a keyed-priority fixture and engine test.

Lifecycle order change: ApplyAfterDiscoveryHooksAsync now runs the ITestDiscoveryEventReceivers (InvokePostResolutionEventsInParallelAsync) before the [After(TestDiscovery)] hooks and before TestSet.Initialize. Previously it was AddTests → hooks → receivers.
Impact: a receiver no longer sees StateBag/state written by an [After(TestDiscovery)] hook, and a receiver reading TestDiscoveryContext.Current.AllTests/TestClasses gets an empty list on the first request, or the previous request's stale contexts when ContextProvider caches the context.

HookRank isn't reset between stages. Seal writes HookRank onto each TestContext, and the discovery and filtering stages share one comparison space in TestGroupingService.
Example: [After(TestDiscovery)] calls OrderTestsBy(name) (ranks 1..500). [Before(TestFiltering)] excludes X, then calls OrderTestsBy(category) (ranks 1..3). X is re-included as a [DependsOn] target and keeps rank 417, so it sorts after every filtering-ranked test and its dependents wait until the end. The docs say unranked re-included dependency targets start before ranked tests.
| // Contract with ConstraintKeyScheduler: it stably re-sorts keyed tests by this value (ascending, ties | ||
| // by array position) and orders waiting candidates by it. When hooks ranked the run the list is already | ||
| // in its final order, so passing each test's position keeps that order intact. | ||
| private static int GetSchedulerPriority(bool hasHookRanks, TestPriority priority, int sortedIndex) |

Priority order isn't preserved without hook ranks. If hooks didn't rank the run, GetSchedulerPriority falls back to TestPriority.GetHashCode(). ConstraintKeyScheduler sorts that value ascending, and a record-struct hash doesn't preserve Priority order, so keyed [NotInParallel("db")] tests with [ExecutionPriority(High)] can start after Low ones.
The keyed list is already sorted priority-first, so always passing the sorted index (dropping the hasHookRanks special case) fixes both paths.

Reflection and source-gen modes differ. Reflection mode dedupes registration by method signature (_registeredMethods) across Before and After attributes. So [Before(TestFiltering)] [After(TestFiltering)] static void Log(TestFilteringContext c) registers twice in source-gen mode, but in reflection mode the After registration is dropped by the TryAdd guard in RegisterAfterHook.
The guard predates this PR, but both filtering hooks take the same TestFilteringContext, which makes this pattern natural here. AGENTS.md requires identical metadata behaviour in both modes. Keying by (hook kind + signature) would fix it.

This guard never fires for [Skip]. "A reason set before the stage (e.g. by [Skip]) wins over hook skips" checks test.SkipReason, but SkipAttribute applies its reason in OnTestRegistered, during RegisterTestsAsync, which runs after both stages are sealed.
So the hook's reason is set first, a Before(TestFiltering) predicate like t => t.SkipReason is null matches [Skip] tests, and a conditional SkipAttribute subclass or receiver that only skips when SkipReason is empty behaves differently. The documented "already-skipped tests keep their original reason" only holds because the attribute overwrites the reason later.

The streaming path doesn't re-include dependencies. DiscoverTestsFullyStreamingAsync drops tests excluded by [After(TestDiscovery)] but, unlike DiscoverTests (IncludeDependencies), never re-includes excluded [DependsOn] targets. If X is excluded and Y depends on X, Y's in-degree never reaches 0, so Y hits the cycle-break fallback and is yielded without its dependency.
The method currently has no callers, so this is latent until it's wired in.

Doc doesn't hold on the filtered path. This says AllTests holds every discovered test "before framework filtering (tree-node filters, [Explicit]) is applied". But on the filter-aware execution path (filter != null && isForExecution), DiscoverAndResolveTestsAsync pre-filters metadata before building tests. With --treenode-filter /A/*/*/*, hooks only see the matching tests and their dependencies. Either reword the doc or call out this exception.

Duplicated API surface. This copies TestDiscoveryContext's whole test-set API (AllTests, Assemblies, TestClasses, ExcludeTests, SkipTests, OrderTestsBy) plus about 30 lines of identical XML docs. A shared base (or interface) over MutableTestSet would declare these members once and stop the exclude/skip/order semantics and docs drifting apart.

Hot path nit. The sequential and keyed sorts call CompareHookRank(a.Test, b.Test), which reads test.Context.HookRank (nullable) on every comparison, adding O(N log N) extra lookups. The parallel path already caches HookRank in TestSortKey. Carrying it into the notInParallel/keyed tuples the same way as ClassName/Index would avoid the repeated reads.

Cleanup. The PR extracts helpers for After(TestDiscovery) and both TestFiltering hooks, but Before(TestDiscovery) is still built inline in two places (RegisterBeforeHook and RegisterBeforeEveryHook). A matching RegisterBeforeTestDiscoveryHook helper would remove the last copy, so future changes to hook construction (FilePath, RegistrationIndex, executor) only touch one place.

Thanks for this, @Quattordici. It's a well-thought-out feature. However, it includes breaking changes, so we can't merge it into the current major version:
We're deferring this until a V2. We're not ready to start V2 yet, so this will be on hold for a while. The inline review comments above still apply when we pick it up. |
Description
Adds a hook stage that runs once the final set of tests is known, and lets hooks exclude, skip and order tests.
New
[Before/After(TestFiltering)]hooks run after framework filtering (--treenode-filter,[Explicit]) and before the test session. They receive a newTestFilteringContext.[Before(TestFiltering)]can change the set;[After(TestFiltering)]sees the final set and is read-only.TestDiscoveryContextandTestFilteringContextgain:ExcludeTests(predicate): drop tests from the run (not reported).SkipTests(predicate, reason): report tests as skipped with a reason.OrderTestsBy(key, comparer?): rank tests by key. Tests with equal keys keep the default order (class, then[NotInParallel(Order)]), so a coarse key such as a category doesn't break existing sequences.[ExecutionPriority]still wins for tests that can run in parallel.Behaviour
[After(TestDiscovery)]also hide tests from--list-testsand the IDE.TestFilteringhooks run for execution requests only.[DependsOn]target is re-included, as with--treenode-filter, and logged at--log-level Debug. A skipped one skips its dependents.TestContext.Current.Dependencies.GetTests(...), so lookups no longer throw "Cannot get unfinished tests".[After(TestFiltering)], throwsInvalidOperationException.TestFilteringhooks skip the stage entirely, so there are no extra allocations.Design notes (differences from the issue)
TestFilteringinstead ofFiltering. It matchesTestDiscovery, andHookTypemembers land in every user's scope through the globalusing static TUnit.Core.HookType, so a bareFilteringcould clash with user types.SkipTestswas added alongsideExcludeTests, so policy-based exclusions can stay visible in reports.OrderTestsByreplaces the proposedReorderTests(Func<IEnumerable, IEnumerable>).
