+### Viewing XUnit logs

+It's usually sufficient to see the test failure output in the console. There is also a test log file, which you can find in a location like `...\runtime\artifacts\bin\System.Text.RegularExpressions.Tests\Debug\net8.0\testResults.xml`. It can be helpful, for example, to grep through a series of failures, or to see how long a slow test actually took.
