[.net] Why is the Visual Studio 2015/2017/2019 Test Runner not discovering my xUnit v2 tests

The reason in my case was the target build was not the same between project debugger and test runner. To unify those elements:

  1. Test>Test Settings>Default Processor Architecture. then select either X64 or X86.
  2. Project>(your project)Properties>Build(tab)>platform target.

After they are identical, rebuild your solution then test methods will appear for you.
