How to check if test is failing in XUnit

 In xUnit, test failures are typically detected and reported automatically by the test runner. When a test fails, the xUnit framework raises an exception, and the test runner logs the failure, providing information about what went wrong. You don't need to explicitly check if a test is failing; the framework handles this for you. However, if you need to take specific actions or perform additional checks when a test fails, you can do so using test attributes and exception handling. Here's how you can approach this in xUnit: 1. **Exception Handling**:    - You can use a `try...catch` block in your test code to capture exceptions that occur during test execution. If an exception is caught, you can perform additional actions, such as logging or cleanup.    ```csharp    [Fact]    public void MyTest()    {        try        {            // Your test code here        }        catch (Exception ex)        {            // Test failed - handle the exception            Console.WriteLine($&q
