[Mono-dev] Unit tests for WCF

[Andreas Färber]

Hi Atsushi,

As far as I understood Roei, their tests are not limited to a single  
WCF class so do not match the Directory.By.NamespaceName/ 
Test.By.ClassName pattern. Also, it sounds like they'd like to use  
some kind of inheritance or helper classes to simplify their tests.
But I don't see a major problem with integrating it into the existing  
structure either, since the runnable test classes need to be specified  
manually anyway.

HTH,
Andreas
