@connor4312 Maybe I missed something. There is a menu called Show in Active File Only in the test view, what's the usage of that option? I tried to enable/disable it, but nothing happens.

@connor4312 Is this option only works for the top level test items? (test items that belongs to testController.items)

When the test item is a deeper one, seems it won't appear

testing.mp4

The algorithm used for showing tests is:

1. If the current file has a URI: if the URI is parent of or equal to the current file show it, otherwise hide it.
2. If the current file does not have a URI, recurse this algorithm for its children. If any children are visible, this item is visible too

Thanks for the explanataion. @connor4312

Sounds like if the test node's uri contains or equal to the current file's uri, then it will be shown in the explorer?

If that's true, could you try this change? jdneo/vscode-extension-samples@d0e96ee

I add a folder layer for each file. But they are not appear when Show in Active File enabled

That option is gone now, is that expected?

Make sure you're looking in the "filter" menu in the search box; it's still there.

Thanks for the repro Sheng! Fixed in the next Insiders.
