Dear all,

I have a problem with NUnit: I have a testing project in vs2008 pro(C# language). My project work with Unit test tool in VS2008 but when I try to run it in NUnit, there is an error:

"This assembly was not built with any known testing project"

I have searched for this, it said that many people meet this problem but there is no answer why it happen :(

I'm working with
NUnit-2.5.9.10348
VS2008 pro

Solution 2

Dear all,

I find out the problem, it may helps someone who is getting this trouble too.

I have create unit test code with vs2008 automatically, so it uses [TestClass()] and [TestMethod()] to declare with vs 2008 while NUnit uses [TestFixture] and [Test].

That's why NUnit did not recognize my unit test method.

This means that you were using the Microsoft Testing tools and not NUnit. (Info for anyone wondering...)
