Sample error

Shouldly.ShouldAssertException : zipArchive.Entries
    should contain an element satisfying the condition
zE.Name.EndsWith("testtaskoutputfile.txt")
    but does not

Notes

The test intermittently fails when verifying that a file produced via task output is embedded in the binary log. The embedded-files list is empty, suggesting the task output file was not created/flushed before the log was finalized (Linux/net10.0 only).

Fix guidance

Preferred fix: ensure the task output file is fully written and flushed before the binary logger finalizes, or add a synchronization point in the test.

Fallback: quarantine via [ActiveIssue("https://github.com/dotnet/msbuild/issues/NNNN")] from Microsoft.DotNet.XUnitV3Extensions (namespace Xunit) — not [Fact(Skip=...)].

Duplicate of #13932. This test was filed multiple times because the tracking-issue marker wasn't being written, so consecutive daily detector runs couldn't dedupe. Tracking continues in #13932, which is the issue referenced by the [ActiveIssue] attribute in #13937.
