I don’t know when they “all broke”, but I do know I had tests failing when I 
was trying to validate changes I had submitted.  Some of them had to do with 
case sensitivity of paths, but I can’t remember the others.  I do think at one 
point in time I had made an attempt to fix it, but with the changeover in 
testing frameworks I never submitted a pull request.

Subject: [WiX-devs] Test overhaul

I've nearly got the fully xunit-based test system working again. I felt it 
important to get it working again whilst checking in all the new code, some of 
which are new tests. I was able to keep some of the same behavior, like 
something similar to TestInitialize and TestCleanup attributed methods. Once 
xunit 2.0 releases (I've got some TODOs in the code as reminders) I can beef it 
up more, but xunit's current extensibility gave me some new options. Just 
trying to get the TestDataDirectory working, which points to 
%WIX_ROOT%\tests\data without relying on the environment variable.

Perhaps this is more directed at Rob or Bob, but I'm curious if there were any 
tests failing before they all broke. I recall that some of the burn tests were 
failing and we turned them off in the internal fork, but all the tests in 
WixTest.dll are working.
