[Only for Macs with Apple silicon] Install dotnet x64 on MacOS

If you are using a Mac computer with Apple silicon chip (M1 or M2) architecture, use the given command.

cd #(project folder Android or iOS)
dotnet browserstack-sdk setup-dotnet --dotnet-path "<path>" --dotnet-version "<version>"

• <path> - Mention the absolute path to the directory where you want to save dotnet x64
• <version> - Mention the dotnet version which you want to use to run tests

This command performs the following functions:

• Installs dotnet x64
  Installs the required version of dotnet x64 at an appropriate path

• Sets alias
  Sets an alias for the dotnet installation location on confirmation (enter y option)
  The command sets the installation path in your ~/.zshrc (zsh) or ~/.bashrc (bash) profile and you can use this alias to run your tests later. If you choose not to set the alias, when you run the tests, you have to use the entire path to the installation location on every test run.
