Glossary Updates

Scan Type: Incremental (daily) — Thursday 2026-07-09

---

Terms Added:

• MSTestTestFramework: New entry documenting the native ITestFramework for MSTest on MTP, introduced by RFC 018 (Phases 1–6 merged today in PRs Native MTP integration for MSTest — RFC 018 + Phases 1–5 (opt-in native path) #9706, Native MTP framework for MSTest — Phases 3–5 (native filter/runsettings/context, opt-in) #9743, Native MTP integration for MSTest (Phase 6a): native providers, config, resources #9748, Drop MSTest's VSTest bridge dependency on the MTP path #9755). Documents the three native seams (MtpUnitTestElementSink, MtpTestResultRecorder, MSTestTestNodeConverter) that replace the former VSTest bridge boundary, and notes that MSTest 4.3 no longer depends on Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.VSTestBridge on the MTP code path.

Terms Updated:

• AzureFoundry: Added managed identity / DefaultAzureCredential authentication details introduced in PR Support managed identity auth in AzureFoundry provider #9707. Now lists all three environment variables (AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT, AZURE_OPENAI_DEPLOYMENT_NAME, AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY) and explains that DefaultAzureCredential is the default (recommended for Azure-hosted scenarios), with API key as optional override and AZURE_CLIENT_ID for user-assigned managed identity.
• VSTestBridge: Added a note that as of MSTest 4.3, MSTest no longer depends on VSTestBridge on the MTP code path (RFC 018 / PR Drop MSTest's VSTest bridge dependency on the MTP path #9755), while clarifying it is still used by NUnit, Expecto, and third-party adapters.
