[Jv <jv.ravichandran@xxxxxxxxx>]

Since I am fairly free, I can work on this issue independently as a
spike. Please point me to the appropriate files in NUnit v2.

I will be working on finding if the async threads' context can be
independently established.

This will help in maintaining that tests "await"-ing a async result is
testing the right context and will also help in establishing the "void"
context.

Title:
  C#5 async tests are not supported

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
