testland/unity-test-framework

Author and run the Unity game-engine Test Framework (`com.unity.test-framework`, currently v1.8). Distinct from the ThrowTheSwitch Unity C testing library at throwtheswitch.org/unity - the two tools share only a name. Covers package install via Package Manager, the EditMode vs PlayMode split, the [Test] / [UnityTest] / [SetUp] / [TearDown] / [UnityPlatform] attributes, assembly-definition setup (Editor folder vs asmdef with `includePlatforms` / `optionalUnityReferences: [TestAssemblies]`), Test Runner window, command-line batch invocation with `-runTests` / `-testPlatform` / `-testResults` / `-testFilter` / `-testCategory`, NUnit 3.5 assertion API, and CI integration. Use when the unit under test is C# Unity code that needs to exercise the Unity runtime or editor.

Batch-mode flags and the exit-code caveat for unity-test-framework, per the command-line reference.

Flags

Flag	Effect
`-runTests`	"Executes tests within the project."
`-batchmode`	"Removes the need for manual user inputs when running tests from the command line."
`-projectPath <path>`	Project root.
`-testResults <path>`	"Designates where Unity stores the result file (XML format per NUnit standards). If unspecified, results are saved in the project root."
`-testPlatform EditMode\|PlayMode\|<BuildTarget>`	"Default: EditMode if not specified." `BuildTarget` (e.g. `StandaloneWindows64`, `Android`) runs tests on a built player for that platform.
`-testFilter "Pattern"`	"Accepts a semicolon-separated list or regex pattern to match test names. Supports negation with `!`."
`-testCategory "Smoke;Critical"`	"Accepts a semicolon-separated list or regex pattern for category matching. Also supports negation with `!`."
`-assemblyNames "MyGame.Tests.PlayMode"`	Limit to specific test assemblies.
`-runSynchronously`	Run on the main thread synchronously (EditMode only).
`-orderedTestListFile`, `-randomOrderSeed`, `-retry`, `-repeat`, `-playerHeartbeatTimeout`, `-testSettingsFile`	"Control test execution order, failure handling, timing, and settings configuration" per the same page.

Full example (Linux / macOS)

Unity \
  -batchmode \
  -projectPath "$PWD" \
  -runTests \
  -testPlatform PlayMode \
  -testResults artifacts/playmode-results.xml \
  -testCategory "Smoke" \
  -logFile artifacts/unity.log

Windows equivalent: invoke "C:\Program Files\Unity\Hub\Editor\<version>\Editor\Unity.exe" with the same flags.

Exit-code caveat

Per the command-line reference: "There is currently no common definition for exit codes reported by individual Unity components under test. Error messages and stack traces in results provide better diagnostic information." Treat the produced -testResults XML as the source of truth in CI rather than the process exit code.
