Hi Jv,

You should coordinate with Simone on this, since he has the
bug assigned. OTOH, there are tons of things to do other
than this if you want something of your own!

Title:
  C#5 async tests are not supported

Status in NUnit Test Framework:
  Triaged
Status in NUnitLite Testing Framework:
  Triaged
Status in NUnit V2 Test Framework:
  In Progress

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
