Clarification Regarding License

[fizanaaz1995]

We noticed a discrepancy regarding the licensing of the CodeCoverage package. The GitHub page lists the license as MIT License, whereas the NuGet package page (https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage/18.8.0) lists it under the MICROSOFT .NET LIBRARY License.

Could you kindly help clarify which license applies in which context? Additionally, if the MIT License applies only to certain versions, it would be helpful to know which ones, as the GitHub page does not specify version-wise licensing details.

Thank you for your help in clarifying this.

There are two things.

• microsoft/codecoverage
  • This repo is docs and samples only — no packaged code lives here. The MIT License applies only to those docs/samples.
• Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage
• The NuGet package is the actual product, published under the MICROSOFT .NET LIBRARY License, which applies to all published versions (including 18.8.0).

So, MIT never applies to the package itself — there's no version-by-version split.
