I used to have a Tests folders in my main project where a unit test had this line of code:

Foo foo = new Foo(Environment.CurrentDirectory + @'\XML\FooData.xml' );

I have an XML directory in the Foo project that has a FooData.xml

In the post build event of my projects i have the following line copy ‘$(ProjectDir)Foo\Currencies.xml’ ‘$(TargetDir)\XML’

I now have broke all unit tests into another projects to separate them out and i now get the following error when running these unit tests.

Could not find a part of the path ‘C:\svncheckout\Foo.Tests\bin\Debug\XML\FooData.xml’
