On Windows the following command works good:
dotnet test -- NUnit.Where="namespace =~ /Abc\.Space1($|\.)/"
On Unix I use:
dotnet test -- NUnit.Where='namespace =~ /Abc\.Space1($|\.)/'
Error:
An exception occurred while invoking executor 'executor://nunit3testexecutor/': Unexpected token '.Space1($|' at position 18 in selection expression.
Gather diagnostics, and saw it:
