Answer 1

You need to tell nunit the config file name. in nunit gui go to project > edit and then change the configuration file name.

It seems nunit looks for namespace.config by default. (eg. tb.specs.config in my case)

Answer 2

The issue is that NUnit look for config files in the root directory (the design-time location of config files). However, .net moves and renames the files into the bin folder. You can change the nunit settings to look in the bin when executing tests.
