Enable 'dotnet test' to be run on published output

[kendrahavens]

Steps to reproduce

After publishing users should be able to run tests on an already compiled executable.
Would address dotnet/core dotnet/sdk#4835
This is more important with the development of IL Linker #915. The Linker Instructions mention that the final executables need to be tested after linking.

Expected behavior

Be able to run 'dotnet test' on published output.

Actual behavior

You can not today. (Or we need to add documentation if you can!)

@pvlakshm Adding Pratap here for visibility.

Edit: Would you mind adding the 'dotnet-test' label?

[livarcocc]

You can use dotnet vstest for that today. Is that not enough?

[livarcocc]

Closing this for now since dotnet vstest should be able to do this for you. If you were asking for something different, please, re-activate.

[Petermarcu]

@livarcocc are there instructions on how to do that?

[Petermarcu]

Beyond dropping to the command line, is there a way to make the tests in the IDE run against the published output?

[livarcocc]

Not that I know of, but I will move this to the vstest repo and they should be able to say for sure.
