Hi Erik, thanks for the report. We were aware of this problem, which we
inadvertently introduced in 2.6.2 while trying to make the test context
flow the call context across multiple threads. Apparently it's now
flowing too much!
If you have any idea how we could prevent this issue from occurring feel
free to share. Currently the only option I see is to make everything
serializable, although it sounds more a workaround rather than a
solution, since the assembly in which these classes are defined will
most likely not be available in the remote process, but it's also true
that the remote process will not need access to it in any case.
A proper solution in my opinion would be to have the test context flow
across threads but not across process (or even appdomain) boundaries,
but I'm not sure there's a way to achieve this level of granularity.

Title:
TestExecutaionContext SerializationException
Status in NUnit V2 Test Framework:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Nunit v 2.6.2.12296 throws a SerializationException because
TestExecutaionContext is not marked as Serializable.
Looks like TestExecutaionContext is calling
CallContext.LogicalSetData("Nunit.Framework.TestContext",current.contextDictionary)
however contextDictionary=> TestExecutaionContext is not Serializable. This
prevents remote calls. You will get a
System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationException : Type
'NUnit.Core.TestExecutionContext' in Assembly 'nunit.core, Version=2.6.2.12296,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=96d09a1eb7f44a77' is not marked as serializable
exception.
You can work around this by calling
CallContext.FreeNamedDataSlot("NUnit.Framework.TestContext");
but is ugly and might break your expectation about what is in the context?
