Coould not run xunit tests for two frameworks in one project

See original GitHub issue

Steps to reproduce

I have this csproj

<Project ToolsVersion="15.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
  <Import Project="$(MSBuildExtensionsPath)\$(MSBuildToolsVersion)\Microsoft.Common.props" />
  <PropertyGroup>
    <TargetFrameworks>net46;netcoreapp1.0</TargetFrameworks>
    <AssemblyName>ProjectName</AssemblyName>
  </PropertyGroup>
  <ItemGroup>
    <Compile Include="**\*.cs" />
  </ItemGroup>
  <ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">
      <Version>1.0.0-alpha-20161104-2</Version>
      <PrivateAssets>All</PrivateAssets>
    </PackageReference>
    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk">
      <Version>15.0.0-preview-20161123-03</Version>
    </PackageReference>
    <PackageReference Include="xunit">
      <Version>2.2.0-beta4-build3444</Version>
    </PackageReference>
    <PackageReference Include="xunit.runner.visualstudio">
      <Version>2.2.0-beta4-build1194</Version>
    </PackageReference>
  </ItemGroup>
  <ItemGroup Condition=" '$(TargetFramework)' == 'net46' ">
    <Reference Include="System" />
    <Reference Include="Microsoft.CSharp" />
  </ItemGroup>
  <ItemGroup Condition=" '$(TargetFramework)' == 'netcoreapp1.0' ">
    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.NETCore.App">
      <Version>1.0.1</Version>
    </PackageReference>
    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.NETCore.Portable.Compatibility">
      <Version>1.0.1</Version>
    </PackageReference>
    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.TestPlatform.TestHost">
      <Version>15.0.0-preview-20161123-03</Version>
    </PackageReference>
  </ItemGroup>
  <Import Project="$(MSBuildToolsPath)\Microsoft.CSharp.targets" />
</Project>

Expected behavior

dotnet test --framework net46 dotnet test --framework netcoreapp1.0

Actual behavior

dotnet test --framework net46 - works fine dotnet test --framework netcoreapp1.0 - does not work. I got an error

Starting test execution, please wait...
Error: Could not find testhost.dll for source 'C:\Projects\ProjectName\bin\Debug\netcoreapp1.0\ProjectName.dll'. Make sure test project has a nuget reference of package "microsoft.testplatform.testhost".

As of 87e9815a25a29fbfa8b87b5757bd44075ef6df4a, Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk can handle OutputType mismatch between netcoreapp and net4x targets. There is no need to specify OutputType in the test project csproj.

Please try build/test with latest dotnet-cli dev build.
