xamarin UITest not compatible with dotnet core?

My apologies for this one small question but i'm checking out to convert the xamarin uitest project to dotnet core. But i'm facing difficulties. When I create a new xamarin uitest project it is automatically in 4.6 and I don't have the option to set it to core. When I create a dotnet core class lib and add the xamarin uitest nuget package it will warn me that it was restored with net framework 461.

Package 'Xamarin.UITest 3.0.7' was restored using '.NETFramework,Version=v4.6.1,

I just can't believe that UITest is not compatible with dotnet core... So i anybody can tell me this is the case or can point me why it is warning me and how to solve it that would be great. Thanks!

Yeah, I noticed the same today. I wanted to change my UITest project to .Net Core but got the same warnings as you:

also looks like there may be other issues based on this question

However, the prerelease version Xamarin.UITest 3.0.8-dev1 seems to not show any warnings even tho they target the same.
