[Simone Busoli <1057981@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For anyone who would like to try it out and improve the test coverage these
are the steps:

   1. bzr branch
   lp:~simone.busoli/nunitv2/async-support-void-and-task-return-types
   2. cd into the directory
   3. [optional] modify the NUnitTests.v2.nunit to contain only the 4.5
   core test assembly
   4. build.bat test net-4.0

Of course existing runners/core cannot run the new tests, so they have to
be built from the source, which is what the above steps do.
I'd say that GC modes have nothing to do with this though.

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
