I believe this deserves implementing.

Charlie, do you mind if I look into it?

Title:
  C#5 async tests are not supported

Status in NUnit V2 Test Framework:
  New

Bug description:
  If a method is marked async, nunit does not recognise it as a test,
  and some test runners may incorrectly  pass it while it is still
  running. These methods actually return a Task not void, and the test
  can only be passed if the task completes without a failure.

  As detailed here http://anthonysteele.co.uk/async-and-await-with-nunit

  MSTest supports async tests
