perhaps @MarcoRossignoli @nohwnd or @Evangelink know whether we can do anything on our side to improve it?

@vzarytovskii That's the issue I was talking to you about when I joined and totally forgot to log.
I haven't investigated the issue but my understanding is that this is linked to some incorrect position being either detected or reported (I would think this is some improvement we need to do on TP but not 100% sure). If @nohwnd hasn't replied in the meantime, I will try to understand TP code logic and see if my assumption is right or not.

I checked and the information returned from code information is correct. Both c# test and f# test return the first line after method definition as the location of the test. Clicking on the location of the test in TestExplorer correctly jumps to the test in the editor in both cases.
Going back from F# test does not work, as reported. Posting this to internal group for further investigation in VS.

The unknown namespace looks like a possible cause, but I don't know how exactly tests are located in TE.

@nohwnd it happens even if there is no
<Empty Namespace>anywhere in the test tree.
