[Bug 505899] Re: 'Description' parameter in both TestAttribute and TestCaseAttribute is not allowed

different attributes. Both of them are PropertyAttributes.

Status in NUnit Test Framework: Triaged

Bug description:
To reproduce create a test method like this:

[Test(Description = "descr1"),
 TestCase("test", Description = "descr2")]
public void Test(string s)
{
}

In such a case loading the result test assembly into NUnit GUI causes the following exception:

As any of the 'Description = "..."' arguments is removed everything is OK again.
