Research direction

The issue names no files or tests. First reproduce the problem by using “Generate Tests...” for a test class in an unmanaged folder, then trace the test-generation entry point and compare it with a managed folder. Done means test methods are generated for the unmanaged-folder class, with coverage for the behavior added where the project’s tests support it.
