Steps to Reproduce:

1. Alt + Shift + R
2. Select npm: run test

Instead of getting npm output I get:

'"npm run test"' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Both npm and node are in my path. I've tried putting npm in both my user path and system path and neither worked. If I open an integrated terminal, I can run npm run test as expected.

@egamma Looks like this is caused by vscode-npm-script.

@dbaeumer agreed, moving the issue.
