Team System Unit Testing May finally be "OK"

image All I can say is, It's about time. I'm getting tired of apologizing for the Microsoft Team System Unit Testing framework, or ranting on it. Perhaps now it can be truly usable without the aid of external helpers such as TestDriven.NET, or be at least on par with NUnit in terms of... not having so many bugs.
