debug-all and debug-file commands?

Looks like most commands provided by Test Explorer in the command palette have a debug equivalent:

  • rerun -> redebug
  • run-test-at-cursor -> debug-test-at-cursor
  • rerun -> redebug

However, that's not the case for run-all and run-file, i.e. there's no debug-all or debug-file. Is there a reason for that?

By the way, thanks for the great extension! 👍 Makes it much easier for Live Share sessions, and also has some other perks I'm missing from the Python extension.

The only reason is that I thought there was no use for it (I usually only run single tests in the debugger). But since you're asking I guess you have a use for it, so I'll add this soon.

FWIW the main reason is that I'm building a VSpaceCode menu for test explorer:

and it just seemed off to have upper-case equivalents for most except those two 🙂.

But I'd probably use at least debug-file from time to time indeed, when e.g. working on a new feature and having multiple tests with breakpoints in them.

I have added the debug-file and debug-all commands now.
