vitest doc section for VS Code

[isidorn]

Hi VS Code PM here 👋

We are currently in the process of making the testing story more discoverable in vscode.
As part of that we are writing docs for the VS Code testing framework, and we really like your testing extension and we want to have a section on it.

This is the draft PR microsoft/vscode-docs#5332
Do you have some good docs to point us to that we could reuse? Or would you like to contribute to our PR directly?

Thanks

Thanks! I'm happy to help. Is this doc about quickly setting up tests in VS Code for TypeScript projects?

[isidorn]

@zxch3n awesome! Yeah setting up tests for TypeScript projects is something that we are aiming for.
Covering also nodeJs would work. I am not sure how specific each of those flows are?

[zxch3n]

Users can follow the guide here to set up Vitest. It works for both TypeScript and NodeJS out of the box, and you can try it online on StackBlitz.

[isidorn]

@zxch3n then I suggest that the docs in VS Code just link to that guide and add some VS Code specifics. Like what extension is needed etc... What do you think?

[zxch3n]

Yeah, I agree. I'll contribute to the PR by tomorrow

[isidorn]

No rush. Looking forward to it. Thanks!

@isidorn is it something that you are still working on?

[isidorn]

Unfortunately no. But we are open to PRs.
