Sounds like you need to change the framework of the library. And since it is only a unit tests project, I don't see why you wouldn't.

In Visual Studio:

• Right-click on your project
• Select Properties
• Select the Application tab
• Change the Target Framework to the desired framework

If you are not seeing .NET Framework 4.5.1 as an option there, ensure you have it installed.
