Re: NUnit 2.5 Possible Issue

I'm aware of this one but hadn't decided yet the way to go.

The basic story is that NUnit now
 1) Treats non-runnable tests similar to errors
 2) Considers empty fixtures as non-runnable

I think that the first point is the correct choice - for example,
if you write a test method with arguments but don't provide any
NUnit can't figure out how to run it, so it's an error.

OTOH, treating an empty fixture as non-runnable may not be the
best thing. It could go back to being marked as ignored or
alternatively use the new Inconclusive result.
