The VsTest Runner plugin throws an error when a wildcard is used in the path to the unit test files. The error message is, "ERROR: no files matching the pattern". This occurs when the plugin is used in freestyle jobs and when it is used in a pipeline script in a pipeline job.

There's a workaround floating around where users are suggesting using a batch script to run vstest.console.exe, but that is completely different process since it circumvents the use of the plugin entirely.

For projects with a large number of unit test files, the inability to use wildcards renders the plugin useless.
