fix: restore the net8.0 target for the packaged libraries - #7743
#7705 dropped the net8.0 and net9.0 targets, on the basis that those projects would use the netstandard2.0 assets instead. That turned out not to work:
Native AOT breaks: the netstandard2.0 tuple, attribute and matrix fallbacks rely on reflection that doesn't survive trimming
TUnit.AspNetCore, TUnit.Aspire, TUnit.OpenTelemetry, TUnit.Logging.Microsoft, TUnit.Mocks.Http and TUnit.Mocks.Logging have no netstandard2.0 target, so net8.0/net9.0 projects couldn't restore them at all
This puts net8.0 back as a target for the packaged libraries. net9.0 projects pick up the net8.0 assets. net9.0 itself is not restored.
Changes
eng/Library.props and the integration libraries target net8.0 again
net8.0 package version group for Microsoft.Extensions.* / Mvc.Testing restored, with its Renovate rule
NuGet tester projects and pipeline modules cover net8.0 (run and AOT publish), and the main CI job installs the 8.0 runtime
No source changes were needed; everything still compiles for net8.0.
Testing
Packed locally and ran a 53-test project (tuple data sources, matrix, inherited attributes, custom typed data source) against the packages:
JIT
Native AOT
net8.0
53/53
53/53
net9.0
53/53
53/53
net10.0
53/53
not re-run
The same project against the netstandard2.0 assets passed 13 of 27 under AOT on net9.0. JIT runs were rolled forward onto the .NET 10 runtime; I don't have the 8.0/9.0 runtimes locally, so CI is the first run on a real net8.0 runtime.
Not done
No net8.0 public API snapshots or net8.0 legs for the repo's own test projects; only the NuGet tester covers it
Docs still describe net10.0 as the minimum
Overlaps with #7742, which fixes the netstandard2.0 dependency. That one is still worth having for the remaining netstandard2.0 consumers, but this PR alone resolves#7739.
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Added .NET 8 support across TUnit libraries, including ASP.NET Core, Aspire, logging, HTTP mocking, and OpenTelemetry integrations.
NuGet packages can now be tested and published for .NET 8, including AOT publishing.
Chores
Updated package version rules to use compatible dependencies for .NET 8.
Since #7705, net8.0 and net9.0 projects fell back to the netstandard2.0
assets, which miss a dependency and are not Native AOT compatible. The
integration packages had no fallback at all. Ship net8.0 assets again and
cover them in the NuGet tester.
The pull request adds .NET 8 as a target for library projects and NuGet tester workflows. It adds framework-specific package versions, Renovate version limits, and .NET 8 SDK installation to the workflow.
Changes: .NET 8 support
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Library targets and package versions eng/Library.props, src/TUnit.*/*.csproj, Directory.Packages.props, renovate.json
Library projects add net8.0 to their target frameworks. Package versions are selected for net8.0, net10.0, and net11.0; Renovate limits updates to the four 8.x packages to versions below 9.0.0.
NuGet tester and workflow coverage .github/workflows/dotnet.yml, tools/tunit-nuget-tester/..., tools/TUnit.Pipeline/Modules/*
The workflow installs the .NET 8 SDK. NuGet tester projects target net8.0, and pipeline test and AOT publish framework lists include net8.0.
thomhurst/TUnit#7705: This PR restores .NET 8 targeting and package version configuration that PR #7705 removed.
thomhurst/TUnit#7357: Both PRs set the Linux framework rule for .NET 8 NuGet package tests.
Merge Risk: Minimal · up to c23da
This restores the net8.0 target for the packaged libraries, which addresses the reported missing-dependency failures. No merge-blocking issue was identified. Net8.0 coverage for the ASP.NET Core tester could be added as a follow-up.

Explanation
The title "fix: restore the net8.0 target for the packaged libraries" matches the main change. The PR adds net8.0 to the TFMs of the packaged libraries, restores the net8.0 package version group, and adds net8.0 coverage to the NuGet tester and pipeline modules. The title is concise and specific, and it follows the conventional commit style. It does not mention the Renovate rule or the CI workflow change, which is acceptable because the title need not cover every detail.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
All changed files relate to the stated purpose of the PR: restoring net8.0 targets for packaged and integration libraries. These files are eng/Library.props, the integration library csproj files (TUnit.AspNetCore, TUnit.Aspire, TUnit.OpenTelemetry, TUnit.Logging.Microsoft, TUnit.Mocks.Http, TUnit.Mocks.Logging, TUnit.AspNetCore.Core, TUnit.Aspire.Core), Directory.Packages.props and renovate.json (net8.0 version group and rule), NuGet tester projects and pipeline modules (net8.0 run and AOT publish coverage), and the CI workflow (.NET 8 SDK install). These changes support the net8.0 restoration and its verification. No source code changes are present, and no unrelated change is demonstrated. The net8.0 restoration addresses the broader fallback problem described in the PR, which is related to #7739 but not identical to its net10.0 reproduction.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
Linked issue #7739 reports a FileNotFoundException for Microsoft.Bcl.AsyncInterfaces 9.0.0.0 in a net10.0 test project with AOT trimming enabled, run through dotnet test. The PR restores net8.0 targets for the packaged libraries. The PR description attributes the failure to net8.0 and net9.0 projects that use the netstandard2.0 assets. The PR does not change net10.0 or net11.0 asset selection, so a net10.0 consumer still resolves the same assets as before. The author reports a net10.0 JIT run (53/53) but did not re-run net10.0 Native AOT. The reported scenario (net10.0 with AOT trimming) is therefore not shown to be fixed. The PR also states that #7742 addresses the netstandard2.0 dependency, which suggests the root cause may remain for net10.0 consumers. No source-level evidence in the reviewed summary shows that the net10.0 failure path no longer loads Microsoft.Bcl.AsyncInterfaces. The coding requirement (compile and pass tests under dotnet test for this project) is not established.
Resolution
Provide evidence for the reported scenario: a net10.0 test project with TUnit 1.83.x and AOT trimming enabled, run with dotnet test, that completes without the Microsoft.Bcl.AsyncInterfaces FileNotFoundException. Include the Native AOT net10.0 result, which the PR does not contain. Alternatively, show which package asset a net10.0 consumer resolves for Microsoft.Bcl.AsyncInterfaces at the reviewed head, so that the net10.0 path can be confirmed as fixed by this PR or by #7742.

A rabbit hops where net8.0 grows, Through package checks, the build path flows. Testers try each framework in turn, While SDKs arrive and projects learn. Then carrots crunch: the targets align!
[Medium impact] The PR appears safe to merge based on the reviewed changes.
Summary
Restores net8.0 assets for the packaged libraries. Projects targeting net9.0 can use those assets.
TUnit packages include .NET 8 assets for apps to select.
CI runs package checks and AOT publishing for .NET 8.
No actionable findings were established.
Acknowledged deferrals: thomhurst explicitly left out net8.0 public API snapshots and repository test legs; the NuGet tester supplies coverage instead. thomhurst also noted that documentation still names net10.0 as the minimum.
Nothing here blocks merging. The change is small, consistent and well-scoped.
What I checked
eng/Library.props and all seven integration csproj files add net8.0 the same way.
The per-TFM PackageVersion groups are mutually exclusive: net8.0, net11.0, and everything else on 10.x. A multi-targeted project therefore gets the right version for each TFM.
The Renovate rule pins the 8.x entries below 9.0.0 and sits next to the existing 10.x/11.x rules.
The pipeline modules cover net8.0 for both run and AOT publish, and CI installs the 8.0 runtime.
Suggestions (non-blocking)
Pipeline coverage.net8.0 is only run on Linux in TestNugetPackageModule, but the AOT module runs it everywhere. That is probably intended, to save CI time. A one-line comment in the AOT module would make the asymmetry obvious.
Package list drift. The 8.x versions (Mvc.Testing 8.0.33, Logging.Abstractions 8.0.3) are hand-picked. If the 8.x line later gets a vulnerability advisory, TreatWarningsAsErrors plus NuGet audit could fail the build. Renovate should keep them current, but check that the pinned versions have no known advisories.
Test gap, which the PR already notes. Only the NuGet tester exercises net8.0, and the repo's own test projects and public API snapshots do not. Consider a follow-up issue so a net8.0-only regression in the integration libraries (for example an API missing on net8.0) is caught before packaging.
Docs. They still say net10.0 is the minimum, which now contradicts the packages. Update them in this PR or the follow-up so users don't think net8.0 is unsupported.
The 53/53 JIT and AOT results on net8.0 and net9.0 are reassuring. Real net8.0 runtime coverage will come from CI.
