Interesting - I can't reproduce this error using the NUnit GUI runner -
only through Nant.

Title:
  Failure in Assembly level Action attribute causes crash

Status in NUnit V2 Test Framework:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  If an assembly-level action attribute causes an error or failure in
  it's start phase, a null reference occurs in TestSuite.MarkTestFailed
  when attempting to acess this.FixtureType.Name.

  Before the introduction of action attributes it was not possible to
  have a failure in setup unless there was a fixture, so no test for
  FixtureType being null was made. We need to test for a non-null
  fixtureType before trying to access it.  This will also apply to
  marking child tests as invalid or ignored - essentially, all
  references to FixtureType on the test suite must be guarded now.
