Pull Request Overview
This PR adds XUnit test output helper integration to improve test feedback and logging capabilities. The changes enable tests to capture and output log entries through XUnit's test output mechanism.
- Added new
XUnitLoggerclass to bridge .NET logging with XUnit test output - Updated delay scenario test classes across different database providers to accept
ITestOutputHelperparameter - Modified the base
WorkflowTestclass to integrate the XUnit logger into the dependency injection container

- Using a hard-coded HintPath with absolute path references is fragile and will break on different machines. Consider using a PackageReference instead of a direct assembly reference for better portability and dependency management.
<HintPath>..\..\..\..\..\.nuget\packages\xunit.abstractions\2.0.3\lib\netstandard2.0\xunit.abstractions.dll</HintPath>

There's trailing whitespace after the semicolon which affects code cleanliness.
Suggested change
| return logLevel.ToString().ToUpper(); | |
| return logLevel.ToString().ToUpper(); |
| services.AddLogging(); | ||
| services.AddLogging(l => l.SetMinimumLevel(LogLevel.Trace)); | ||
| services.AddSingleton<ILoggerProvider>(p => new XUnitLoggerProvider(testOutputHelper)); | ||
| services.Add(ServiceDescriptor.Singleton<ILoggerFactory, LoggerFactory>()); |

Explicitly registering LoggerFactory as singleton may conflict with the existing logging setup from AddLogging(). The AddLogging() method already registers ILoggerFactory, so this additional registration could cause issues.
Suggested change
| services.Add(ServiceDescriptor.Singleton<ILoggerFactory, LoggerFactory>()); | |
| // Removed explicit registration of LoggerFactory as singleton for ILoggerFactory to avoid conflict with AddLogging() |
| services.AddLogging(l => l.SetMinimumLevel(LogLevel.Trace)); | ||
| services.AddSingleton<ILoggerProvider>(p => new XUnitLoggerProvider(testOutputHelper)); | ||
| services.Add(ServiceDescriptor.Singleton<ILoggerFactory, LoggerFactory>()); | ||
| services.Add(ServiceDescriptor.Singleton(typeof(ILogger<>), typeof(XUnitLogger<>))); |

Registering ILogger<> directly may interfere with the logging framework's factory pattern. The ILoggerFactory should be responsible for creating ILogger instances through its CreateLogger method.
Suggested change
| services.Add(ServiceDescriptor.Singleton(typeof(ILogger<>), typeof(XUnitLogger<>))); |
…nly if test output helper was provided, otherwise falls back to previous default logger
