Continuing above comment...
By experimenting, I ascertained that Console.Clear() always applies to
the real console, even when Console.SetOut has been called.
For example, in a console program, this code
public static void Main()
{
Console.WriteLine("Starting...");
var savedOut = Console.Out;
var sw = new StringWriter();
Console.WriteLine("Setting Console to StringWriter");
Console.SetOut(sw);
Console.WriteLine("This should not appear");
Console.Clear();
Console.WriteLine("Neither should this");
Console.SetOut(savedOut);
Console.WriteLine("Exiting...");
}
Results in a cleared screan with "Exiting..." displayed at the top.
Since Console.Clear() is being applied to the real console, the example
test runs successfully under nunit-console, but causes an error under
the nunit gui, which doesn't have a real console.
An interesting effect, but not an NUnit bug.
