[MonoDevelop] Fwd: Re: Fwd: nunit Problem in MonoDevelop 2.6

[Jim Orcheson]

Hi Ian,

As noted below, MonoDevelop shows nunit 2.5.10. Yes it was necessary to
change from nunit whatever to the nunit 2.5.10 package just to get the
tests to build, but my problem comes when I try to run the tests.

I actually have two nunit packages listed when I edit the references for
the project. One is nunit and the other is mono-nunit. I have tried both
with the same result.
