Dynamics 365 v9 Unit Testing and .NET Confusion

Recently while creating a plugin for Dynamics 365 v9, I ran into an issue trying to connect to CRM via the tooling connector in my unit test project. The underlying problem was that the .NET version I was using in my unit test was 4.5.2. This was preventing me from being able to connect to CRM to create my organization service.

There are instances where a connector exists but is not listed in the marketplace. An example of this is for a client that I built a connector for. They didn't want to setup a system to run the on-premise agent, so they asked me to set up the connector to run on Scribe's cloud agent. This meant that I had to submit the connector to Scribe for validation. Once published the connector is in the Scribe marketpla…
