While there are some use patterns where you would want this, there are
others where you would not. We can look into this, but first please try
the following workaround first.
Derive your own attribute from CategoryAttribute... e.g.: InheritableCategory.
Allow your attribute to be inherited.
Use it on the base class
Please let me know if this works for you.

Make CategoryAttribute inherited

You received this bug notification because you are a member of NUnit
Developers, which is subscribed to NUnit V2.
Status in NUnit V2 Test Framework: New
Bug description:
The attribute Category (used for making tests as being in a particular
category) should be inherited. This would allow setting up an abstract base
class for a certain type of test, marking it as [Category("Whatever")], and
having NUnit recognize that every other test that inherits from that class is
also in category "Whatever".
As of 2.5.7.10213, CategoryAttribute is not inherited.
