Incremental PowerShell/Pester testing?
Recently started doing systems automation ("devops") at a shop that uses TeamCity for CI, which I note has supported incremental testing (at least via Gradle) since 7.0.
The PowerShell runner (which most people recommend for Pester Unit testing) doesn't have an 'incremental switch'. Is there a way I could create a meta-runner, or some other workaround, that would?
There are other ways around this problem for me, but I figured I'd reach out in case someone's implemented this out there.

Hi,
Gradle includes incrementals on its own, teamcity simply offers the option to delegate to gradle, who takes the responsibility of handling the incremental builds/tests. Powershell is just a scripting tool, you would probably be looking at finding or creating a pester-specific runner that allows for incremental build/testing, but it probably needs to be supported by pester itself
