Hi Siddi,

All you have to do is to add references to the nunit.core and nunit.core.interfaces dll files from your version of NUnit. You can find them in C:\Program Files (x86)\NUnit 2.5.7\bin\net-2.0\lib 
After that you have to copy the ArtOfTest.WebAii.NUnitExtension.dll from the project's bin\Debug folder and paste it in the C:\Program Files (x86)\NUnit 2.5.7\bin\net-2.0\addins folder. 
I have recorded a short video as demonstration of the process.  You can also find attached the  ArtOfTest.WebAii.NUnitExtension.dll that should work with NUnit 2.5.7.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

How to Compile the sources against your version of NUnit with NUnit 3.11 ?

First of all I can't open the ArtOfTest.WebAii.NUnitExtension.sln in Visual Studio 2017 to add the nunit.core and nunit.core.interfaces dll files as reference.

Secondly I can't find any addins folder in NUnit 3.11.

Thank you for your Support!

Hi Charlotte,

Thank you for contacting us. 

We managed to investigate the encountered issue on our end and it turns out that NUnit is completely redesigned after its version 3.0 and higher. Therefore the current extension available in our documentation is not compatible with the latest NUnit versions. If you need to build this you can use any NUnit version prior 3.0. 

However, using this extension is not mandatory and depending on how your tests are build, you may not need to use it. Can you, please, elaborate further on the current implementation you are using? You can also prepare a sample project or unit test to share as an example - this will ease us in understanding the details of the test setup you have on your end. 

Please, let me know in case you have any further questions. Thank you for your understanding.
