I can't recreate this.

Which version of the Reqnroll for VisualStudio 2022 extension do you have installed? (Extensions/Manage Extensions). The latest is v 2024.8.234

You mention adding global using Reqnroll; to a 'global using file'. Did you do that manually? Was this project created by Reqnroll's VisualStudio Extension's new project wizard? (You get prompted for which version of .net and which test framework to use?) If so, the new project already has a global using file (called ImplicitUsings.cs) and Reqnroll is already included in it.

Has the project been built? (Most of the features of the Reqnroll VisualStudio extension won't work without first building the solution).

Hi

Reqnroll for VisualStudio 2022 extension is latest version -2024.8.234

Manually added to a custom usings file - GlobalUsings.cs as this is not a new project, we are porting over from SpecFlow.

Yes project has been built

Please check your project's csproj file. Does it have a <PropertyGroup> with a setting for <ImplicitUsings>? Is it set to Enable or Disable?

It should look something like the below. If it is missing, try adding it.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">
  <PropertyGroup>
    <TargetFramework>net8.0</TargetFramework>
