I had a winforms C# class that internally was looking up a file.. to help unit test, i changed it to pass in a file from the outside such as:

string file = Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location + ‘TestXML.xml’);

Foo = new Foo(file);

the problem is that the code works fine normally but when run in Nunit it comes us with an error saying ‘Cant find directory C:\doc & settings\ . . .. testxml.xml

any thoughts?
