dotnet test on new project built from template fails to run

See original GitHub issue

I get this error when I dotnet test on a new Expecto project:

Starting test execution, please wait… An exception occurred while invoking executor ‘executor://yolodev/expecto’: Method not found: ‘Void ExpectoConfig…ctor(Boolean, Int32, Microsoft.FSharp.Core.FSharpOption1<System.TimeSpan>, System.TimeSpan, Double, Boolean, Microsoft.FSharp.Core.FSharpFunc2<Expecto.Test,Expecto.Test>, TestPrinters, Expecto.Logging.LogLevel, Microsoft.FSharp.Core.FSharpOption1<System.String>, Microsoft.FSharp.Core.FSharpFunc2<Expecto.TestCode,Expecto.SourceLocation>, Int32, Int32, Microsoft.FSharp.Core.FSharpOption`1<Int32>, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean)’.

Steps:

Create a new expecto project

dotnet new expecto

Build the project

dotnet build

Build runs, does a restore, there are no errors.

Run the tests.

dotnet test

Get this error:

Starting test execution, please wait… An exception occurred while invoking executor ‘executor://yolodev/expecto’: Method not found: ‘Void ExpectoConfig…ctor(Boolean, Int32, Microsoft.FSharp.Core.FSharpOption1<System.TimeSpan>, System.TimeSpan, Double, Boolean, Microsoft.FSharp.Core.FSharpFunc2<Expecto.Test,Expecto.Test>, TestPrinters, Expecto.Logging.LogLevel, Microsoft.FSharp.Core.FSharpOption1<System.String>, Microsoft.FSharp.Core.FSharpFunc2<Expecto.TestCode,Expecto.SourceLocation>, Int32, Int32, Microsoft.FSharp.Core.FSharpOption`1<Int32>, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean)’.
