[Bug 910218] [NEW] NUnit should add a trailing separator to the ApplicationBase

 

Public bug reported:

NUnit often sets the test AppDomain ApplicationBase to a value that
doesn't contain a terminating separator. This works fine as far as .NET
is concerned, but is not the same as the default AppDomain application
base, which always terminates with a separator.

Because some apps assume that the ApplicationBase ends with a separator,
it's  best if we provide it.

I learned about this from a blog post I stumbled across, that was about
a year old. I wish people would report issues rather than just leaving
them out on the internet in random locations! Well, at least I found
this one.
