Question

Seems like I may be missing to set some enviornment variable in my AppHarbor environment.
My test folder cannot find reference to the nunit framework. I am using NUnit 2.5.9.

Part of the build output is pasted below. Any ideas what am I missing?

Primary reference "nunit.framework".
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Microsoft.Common.targets(1360,9): warning MSB3245: Could not resolve this reference. Could not locate the assembly "nunit.framework". Check to make sure the assembly exists on disk. If this reference is required by your code, you may get compilation errors. [D:\temp\oyiirwgf.sjw\input\JeeneeTest\JeeneeTest.csproj]
          For SearchPath "{HintPathFromItem}".
          Considered "..\..\..\..\..\..\..\Program Files (x86)\NUnit 2.5.9\bin\net-2.0\framework\nunit.framework.dll", but it didn't exist.
          For SearchPath "{TargetFrameworkDirectory}".
          Considered "C:\Program Files (x86)\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\.NETFramework\v4.0\nunit.framework.dll", but it didn't exist.
          Considered "C:\Program Files (x86)\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\.NETFramework\v4.0\nunit.framework.exe", but it didn't exist.

We (AppHarbor) recommend you use the NuGet Nunit package. You can either commit the /packages folder along with your code or use NuGet package restore to make the NuGet package work as part of you AppHarbor build.
