Unable to run stryker on my test project - No .csproj or .fsproj file found, please check your project directory

[GKP47]

Hi,
I have followed articles and stryker documentation to create stryker-config.json file. This is how my config file looks like,

{
"stryker-config":
{
"reporters": [
"progress",
"html"
],
"solution": "../My.sln",
"project": "MyProj.csproj",
"test-projects": ["MyProj.Tests.csproj"],
"mutation-level": "Advanced",
"thresholds": { "high": 80, "low": 60, "break": 0 },
"verbosity": "trace"
}
}

My test project has reference to many source code projects, but since I wanted to test only "MyProj.csproj", I have added in project variable.

I am getting following error while running stryker from test project No .csproj or .fsproj file found, please check your project directory at D;.....

My projects are running on .Net framework 4.7.2 and I am using Stryker 4.5.1 version.

I saw lot of similar issues on here and on stackoverflow, but none of the steps followed is fixing my issue.

Please show us your directory structure and your working directory (directory from which you are running stryker)

Is there a csproj in the working directory?

Yes its at one level up D:\Repos\ProjectRootFolder, I have tried both the ways as mentioned below,

"project": "MyProj.csproj"

and

"project": "..\\MyProj\\MyProj.csproj"

But none of the approaches having any luck, its still the same issue.

That's not what I asked. Is there a csproj in the working directory, aka the directory you run stryker from? Check https://stryker-mutator.io/docs/stryker-net/operating-modes/ for the different ways to run stryker.

I have test csproj in the working directory but my source code csproj is one level up in its own project folder.

Can you show your project references? Can you post the logs?
