Hi Jv,

Thanks for the quick response, and can I just quickly say thankyou, 
thankyou very much for nunit.

I'm having trouble repeating the bug this morning, I remember that there 
was something I left off the report last night that might be useful. Let 
me explain what I have done first though.

The VS solution is in SVN so I checked it out to a 32 bit machine, and 
left it in it's current 'target framework 3.5' position and it worked 
fine. I changed the solution to target to framework 3.5 and it worked 
fine as well. All of the target changes are on the VS projects, not nunit.

I went back to the 64 bit machine, reloaded the project and checked that 
it still worked with a framework 3.5 target. It did. I then changed it 
to a 4.0 project and it worked! I do not believe that anything else had 
changed.

In case there was something being affected by it having run once, I 
created a new 64 bit, very simple test project, and it ran fine.

In all these cases I am running a class library by setting the debug 
executable to nunit.exe and giving it the name of the .dll containing 
the testing code - I don't use an .nunit file.

So, I have been unable to repeat the issue I was having last night. I'm 
sure you get some bogus bug reports, and I'll be the first one to admit 
that I can make silly mistakes, but I really haven't made any changes 
from last night other than moving it back to a framework 4.0 target.

Last night, there was one odd thing that happened while initially trying 
to get nunit running. I had the error about not finding the test fixture 
on the very first run. On the second attempt, I believe it found the 
text fixture, but not on any subsequent runs. I believe that it was the 
nunit 2.5.5 version that was running because visually it appeared 
slightly different (with the tick marks) to 2.4.8 that I had been using 
previously. The reason that I didn't include it in the report last night 
was that I was working with two solutions and assumed that I had 
accidently run an old solution where I was copying the using statements 
from. Because I couldn't repeat it - I put it down to this other 
solution and assumed that I was mistaken. I'm not so sure now.

My solution is now set to framework 4.0 and I will be using nunit 
2.5.5.10112 for the next couple of days. If I can reproduce the error 
once more, then I will let you know. If I do reproduce the error, should 
I reply to this email again?

Just downloaded v2.5.5.10112 of Nunit. In a new VS2010 project I am unable to get either the nunit.exe or nunit-console.exe programs to recognize my test cases. The programs run, and after a while tell me 'can't find test fixture' in the case of nunit-console, and a similar message with nunit. The test class has TestFixture applied, and is public, the method has TestCase applied (started as Test) and is also public. The project has references to the 2.5.5 versions of nunit.core.dll and nunit.framework.dll.

I changed the target runtime to 3.5, recompiled, and it has picked up on the test cases immediately (I'm still using the 2.5.5 dlls).

Possibly of interest, the gui really wants to use version 2 of the framework. I tried requesting version 4 from the menu but after a while, it fails to find the test and reverts back to version 2 of the framework.

I'm using VS2010 (evaluation edition at the moment), on 64 bit Vista.

I've tried to find a solution elsewhere, and full apologies in advance if it's a school-boy error on my part.

Thanks for your time on the project.
