How to compile+test for only installed target frameworks?

This is an exact duplicate of:

• https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58687081/how-do-i-conditionally-build-net-core-3-0-only-if-supported-by-tooling

But I am looking for a working solution, since the following does not work for me:

• https://stackoverflow.com/a/58689963/136285

I need to support 6.0 image:

% docker run -t mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:6.0 dotnet --list-sdks
6.0.410 [/usr/share/dotnet/sdk]
% docker run -t mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:6.0 dotnet build --version
MSBuild version 17.3.2+561848881 for .NET
17.3.2.46306

as well as 7.0 image:

% docker run -t mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:7.0 dotnet --list-sdks
7.0.305 [/usr/share/dotnet/sdk]
% docker run -t mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:7.0 dotnet build --version
MSBuild version 17.6.3+07e294721 for .NET
17.6.3.22601

In other word, what should I replace the following naive attempt with ?

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">

  <PropertyGroup Condition="'$(VisualStudioVersion)'=='16.0'">
    <TargetFramework>net6.0</TargetFramework>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <PropertyGroup Condition="'$(VisualStudioVersion)'=='17.0'">
    <TargetFrameworks>net7.0</TargetFrameworks>
  </PropertyGroup>

I could not find no working solution either on microsoft.com forum:

• https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/1148245/how-to-compile-for-only-installed-target-framework

Technically the image with net7.0 installed can build net6.0 target framework, however it is failing the test step. Full steps to reproduce issue:

% docker run -it mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:7.0
# cd /tmp
# dotnet new sln -o unit-testing-using-dotnet-test
# cd unit-testing-using-dotnet-test
# dotnet new classlib -o PrimeService
# mv PrimeService/Class1.cs PrimeService.cs
# dotnet sln add ./PrimeService/PrimeService.csproj
# dotnet new xunit -o PrimeService.Tests
# dotnet add ./PrimeService.Tests/PrimeService.Tests.csproj reference ./PrimeService/PrimeService.csproj
# dotnet sln add ./PrimeService.Tests/PrimeService.Tests.csproj

now move it to net6.0 and observe it builds fine, but test do not work anymore:

# sed -e 's/net7.0/net6.0/' -i ./PrimeService/PrimeService.csproj
# sed -e 's/net7.0/net6.0/' -i ./PrimeService.Tests/PrimeService.Tests.csproj

gives:

I find a small trick, you need only one PropertyGroup in the project file, the core idea is to use the -p argument to replace the value of the Targetframeworks property, and use for to obtain each SDK versions and build each one.

for /f "eol= tokens=1,2 delims=. " %i in ('dotnet --list-sdks') do
dotnet build -p:TargetFrameworks=netcoreapp%i.%j

Thanks to @shingo suggestion I was able to come up with the following in my gitlab-ci:

build:
  stage: build
  extends: .build-matrix
  image: $IMAGE
  script:
    - |
      for sdk in $(dotnet --list-sdks | cut -f1-2 -d'.'); do
        dotnet build -p:TargetFrameworks=net${sdk}
      done

and same goes for test:

tests:
  stage: test
  extends: .build-matrix
  image: $IMAGE
  script:
    - |
      for sdk in $(dotnet --list-sdks | cut -f1-2 -d'.'); do
        dotnet test -p:TargetFrameworks=net${sdk}
      done
