[Mono-dev] NUnit version for mono source tests

[Martin Thwaites]

Hi Miguel/Charlie,

If there is no fundamental reason not to use a more recent version, then
I'll add it to my list.

I seem to recall that Nunit 3.0 is removing support for older framework
versions, so if it removes 2.0 we won't be able to do it until "the big
purge" happens in mono.

Once I've got these bits done for the webstack, I'll have a look.  Unless
someone beats me to it.

Couple of questions.

Charlie, were there any breaking changes between 2.4.8 and 2.6.3?  and
dovyou have a link to the specific breaking changes between 2.6 and 3.0?

Miguel, would you accept a PR from the community for this? Given that it
may mean your company needs to update their tests too?

Thanks
Martin
