Can't open sample projects in VS

[Wit]

I tried both VS Express 2008 & 2010. While opening solution from QuickStarts_NUnit_CS folder I get error:
"The project file
XXX
can not be opened.

The project type is not supported by this installation"

What am I doing wrong?

Hi Wit,

The VS Express does not support testing. You will need VS Professional or above. 
Basically you should not be able to open any tests with the Express edition.
Also these examples are based on NUnit framework which is a separate installation.

Hope this helps.

VS Express is sufficient to create the test assemblies - adding references to WebAii or Nunit assemblies are easy tasks. I really don't understand why it has to be the Pro version.

Hi Wit,

It is one thing to build a project you can even use MSBuild for that and another to open a project with VS.
These samples are create with VS Professional. The Express edition lacks the necessary test templates and run tools. This is the reason you get: "The project type is not supported by this installation" error.
