dotnet test is not running tests for .NETFramework targets #94183

Description

When running dotnet test on a test project in dotnet/runtime that targets .NETFramework I expect tests to run, but they do not. Seems like we have lots of other issues mentioning this, but I couldn't find an active one.

Reproduction Steps

build clr+libs -rc Release
cd src\libraries\System.Collections.Immutable\tests
dotnet test -f:net462

Expected behavior

Tests run.

    Discovering: System.Collections.Immutable.Tests (app domain = on [no shadow copy], method display = ClassAndMethod,
   method display options = None)
    Discovered:  System.Collections.Immutable.Tests (found 4008 of 4123 test cases)
    Starting:    System.Collections.Immutable.Tests (parallel test collections = on, max threads = 16)

Actual behavior

No tests run:

Test run for c:\src\dotnet\runtime\artifacts\bin\System.Collections.Immutable.Tests\Debug\net462\System.Collections.Immutable.Tests.dll (.NETFramework,Version=v4.6.2)
Starting test execution, please wait...
A total of 1 test files matched the specified pattern.
No test is available in c:\src\dotnet\runtime\artifacts\bin\System.Collections.Immutable.Tests\Debug\net462\System.Collections.Immutable.Tests.dll. Make sure that test discoverer & executors are registered and platform & framework version settings are appropriate and try again.

Regression?

I think this is a recent regression. I believe this used to work as I remember seeing test failures on framework when running with dotnet test.

Known Workarounds

Directly invoke the test target.

\src\dotnet\runtime.dotnet\dotnet build /t:test -f:net462
