Thank you for all the fantastic work, David and team

Thank you for the forthcoming test runner functionality in vs code. Such similar functionality with vs code and python has long been helpful; it is wonderful to see such similar functionality for julia coming to vs code. thank you for this feature, I will use it immediately upon its upcoming release!

My favorite extension for vscode. Thanks Sebastian and David!

[@KirbyZhang]

nice work. especially like the @testitems feature.

[@MCNaydex]

As last year, impressive work!

[@slawomirgontarek4213]

Thanks for good job. Can you make a step-by-step video of the Julia VS Code installation with all the important extensions you show? Maybe there is a movie and I don't know?

[@andreadeflorio3769]

Debugging in Julia is time consuming and for some packages even unstable, at least in VS Code. DebugAdapter looks to be a great help. A demonstration on how to use DebugAdapter, on what it really does, on its advantages and disadvantages, on how to compile a new module and add it to DebugAdapter would be very appreciated. A Demonstration as well on SnoopPrecompile and how to make best use of both SnoopPrecompile and DebugAdapter would be also very appreciated. Thanks a lot for your videos!

Thanks for the great progress! Unfortunately some of the features don't seem to work, even though I'm using Julia 1.8.0-rc3 and a very recent version of vscode, and the latest extension... e.g. the profile view is missing features like saving the profile to disk (no icon). I wonder if this only supported in the "Julia Insider" extension? If so I recommend you mention it explicitly next time, so we don't just assume it's buggy. You should also add `using ProfileView` etc. so it's clear what packages are assumed, and easier to follow along. Thanks!

[@BioTurboNick]

FWIW, I have a save icon for the profile viewer, not an insider version. And I didn't need to do `using ProfileView`.

[@JClrcQ]

Stupid question maybe. Would it be possible to have some script or vs extension that actually configure all VS code to the best of Julia dev with all the righT settings enabled? I am getting lost in all that needs to be set up. Sorry I am a MATLAB user and I like that its IDE just work out of the box.

Love the @testitems !

[@jcbritobr]

thats very nice features.
