Just a question about TUnit's project type

[koddek]

Why do the documentation instructions for creating a Test Unit package recommend an empty console application when a standard, empty class library appears to function identically? Is there a specific advantage to using a console application over a class library in this context?

Tunit test projects are basically console apps, with some magic set up to define the entry point for you courtesy of the Microsoft testing platform.

This is probably working because TUnit tries to set the project type as an exe for you by default.

The docs tell you to explicitly do it just for best practise, and because I couldn't manage to default it for net framework projects
