The tricky part here is that test sources need to have an output folder than main sources, so it is necessary to also add the capability to configure the output folder in this wizard.

Why is this closed as "Won't fix"?

As "normal" source folders are allowed to have different outputs too it would be good to add this anyways.

I would expect something similar as for java project that has the "use default location" checkbox that enables an additional folder selection.

Then add a checkbox choice jut below the existing onex

[ ] This folder contains only test-sources

if it is checked, then the wizard simply needs to enforce that a custom folder is set as it is done within the Source-folder pane.
