#377 Nunit 2.5.0.9122:setup not called when test method inherited

[Ngu Soon Hui]

When a debugger is attached ( i.e., when I am running in Testdriven.net or NUnit GUI), I found that the Setup method wont' be called if my test method is inherited from a base method.

Here's the code, the setupCount is 0, instead of the correct result, 2.

public class SetupCallBase
{
protected int setupCount = 0;
public virtual void Init()
{
setupCount++;
}
public virtual void AssertCount()
{
}
}
[TestFixture]
public class SetupCallDerived: SetupCallBase
{
[SetUp]
public override void Init()
{
setupCount++;
base.Init();
}
[Test]
public override void AssertCount()
{
Assert.AreEqual(2, setupCount);
}
}
As far as I know NUnit 2.4 will have the above test pass.

On the other hand, the test will also pass if I don't make the AssertCount as virtual/override.
