In my case "Testing" icon was gone after upgrade and I have manually drag "Test explorer" from "Explorer" panel onto sidebar.
After that, side bar was automatically switching to Explorer panel when running tests from icon near line number or from test tree - exactly as reported.

I resolved this problem by right clicking on "Testing" sidebar icon, and then selecting "Reset location".

I had this problem upgrading from 1.58.0 to 1.66.0 (and removing Test Explorer UI extension with python adapter), but not when upgrading from 1.63.2 to 1.66.0

[gilesknap]

I had this problem on upgrade to 1.68 from 1.64. The file explorer took the focus when starting tests from test explorer.

I can confirm that @BlackZork 's fix using Reset Location worked for me too.

[karthiknadig]

This doesn't seem to be happening in the latest builds of VS Code, the behavior itself was likely an issue in the Test UI in core. Please let us know if this happens again.

[nortakales]

This is still happening in VSCode 1.71.2 with Test Runner for Java v0.37.1.

However, the solution above ("reset location") does fix the issue.

[karthiknadig]

@nortakales If this is happening on Java please file it on the Jave extension. the issue with the UI itself should be filed on VS Code.
