Result StackTrace

This error occurred to me when I tried to test a SharePoint emulator with a test project. I tried in many ways and it was a simple code; but I wonder why it was giving this error. I put the DLLs to bin and did various things, but nothing worked for me. Then what I did was:

  1. First, uninstall the existing emulator from the project (by navigating to NuGet Manger).

    1

  2. Then change the Test Project Framework to 3.5 and reinstall the Sharepoint.Emulator using NuGet manager.

Then it worked.

Note: After installing Sharepoint.Emulator in 3.5, I changed the framework to 4.0 again. and the project still works.
