[Charlie Poole <charlie@xxxxxxxxx>]

OK then, so you're safe. I know that their are various express releases and
some of them are limited in what they support.

I haven't loaded and tested that code yet. But the net45 test program is
just a set of tests, not NUnit. It is of course built for .NET 4.5. Simone
is working on making sure it will run under NUnit so it may not yet be
complete. Note that some code in nunit.core.tests is under the control
of #if statements, which keep it from being compiled when not wanted.

Title:
  C#5 async tests are not supported

Status in NUnit Test Framework:
  Triaged
Status in NUnitLite Testing Framework:

Status in NUnit V2 Test Framework:

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
