I can not figure out how I should do to be able to read parameters from runsettings file via TestContext.

  NUnit.Framework.TestContext.Parameters.Get(....) returns null.

  We work with this, with a runsettings file like:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
  <RunSettings>
    <TestRunParameters>
      <Parameter name="paramName" value="paramValue" />
    </TestRunParameters>
  </RunSettings>

  And accessing the parameters like:

  var testParams = NUnit.Framework.TestContext.Parameters;
  string myParam = testParams["paramName"];

  This works both by selecting runsettings file in VS and from command line used in CI/CD pipelines
