I have installed mono-complete, nuget and nunit.

I am using NUnit Console Runner to run nunit test cases.

In the related NUnit issue you mention that you compile the one test file using mcs. If instead you compile using xbuild on your version of Mono (msbuild on newer versions), you will find that it works as expected.

xbuild /p:Configuration=Release NUnitTest.sln
