2. In Visual Studio, go to menu: Tools > Extensions and Updates > Online
3. Search: Nunit 3 Test Adapter
4. Download and install it
5. Open from menu: Test > Windows > Test Explorer
6. You can run your tests from this panel (not using the "Start" button)
7. You can debug your tests from this panel:
   1. Double click on a test. Set some breakpoints in the test in the editor panel.
