Using the latest release, I now got it up and running. (Opposed to the crash I got with the previous version) See a small review I did with screenshots and the download location in this article .

When converting some tests I needed to convert TestFixtureSetup and TestFixtureTeardown. Simply replacing TestFixtureSetup/Teardown with ClassInitialize/Cleanup left me with an error when executing tests. VS2005 complained that the signature of the method for Initialize and Cleanup was not correct. I...

Recently I did some tests migrating existing sites to ASP.NET 2.0. As it turns out, not all types of code will flawlessy upgrade, because of the new dynamic compilation model.
