We have the public API `JsonObject.ConvertFromJson` to convert from JSON string in the PowerShell context. It would be good to have a public API for conversion to JSON. This PR refactors the `ConvertTo-Json` cmdlet to move the core implementation to `JsonObject.ConvertToJson`, and make `ConvertTo-Json` call that public method. This would help the Azure Function PowerShell worker. Currently, we depends on [calling the cmdlet](https://github.com/Azure/azure-functions-powershell-worker/blob/729710d2595b4b96abd4fa5a5547fe880e98bfa6/src/PowerShell/PowerShellManager.cs#L198-L205) to convert object to JSON which is expensive. Once we have the public method `JsonObject.ConvertToJson` exposed, we can call the API directly to avoid a command invocation.
xUnit Tests
The folder contains xUnit tests for PowerShell Core project.
Running xUnit Tests
Go to the top level of the PowerShell repository and run full set of tests:
Start-PSxUnit inside a self-hosted copy of PowerShell.
Go to the test project folder and run dotnet test -c Release.
Use filter parameter to run only needed tests:
dotnet test -c Release --filter "FullyQualifiedName~UnitTest1 # Runs tests which have UnitTest1 in FullyQualifiedName
dotnet test --filter Name~TestMethod1 # Runs tests whose name contains TestMethod1
Creating xUnit Tests
Keep the folder structure that is for Pester ../../test/powershell and C# files ../../src.
Use namespace names started with PSTests.
namespace PSTests.YourNameSpace
