This worked for me. It seems existing xunit versions do not support the netstandard 1.6 library yet. Try changing your project json to look like this as provided for in xunit site. This also assumes that you created a .net core library project

{
  "version": "1.0.0-*",
  "testRunner": "xunit",
  "dependencies": {
    "xunit": "2.2.0-beta2-build3300",
    "dotnet-test-xunit": "2.2.0-preview2-build1029"
  },
  "frameworks": {
    "netcoreapp1.0": {
       "dependencies": {
          "Microsoft.NETCore.App": {
             "type": "platform",
             "version": "1.0.0"
           }
         }
      }
   }
}
