If you are loading the assembly directly, your config file should
work, provided that UnitTests.dll and UnitTests.dll.config are
in the same directory. However, if you are loading a project, the
naming convention changes. If the project is named UnitTests.nunit
then the config is UnitTests.config and must be in the same directory
as the project. For a csproj or sln file, the rule is the same.
