Installation documentation refers to files missing from Windows install

[Suncat2000]

Installation Verification section of Installation page (http://www.nunit.org/index.php?p=installation&r=2.5.3) states:

Verify that the installation has worked successfully by running the NUnit gui and loading and running NUnitTests.nunit. All tests should pass.

No such file exists anywhere in the Windows binary installation package. Either the documentation needs to be updated to remove this section or the file, which appears to exist in the source packages, needs to be included in the package.

I am using NUnit 2.5.3 on a Windows Vista platform. The same problem exists in 2.5.2.

I've verified that NUnitTests.nunit is present in both the Windows installer and the binary zip for 2.5.3 and 2.5.2. You will find (different versions of) the file under both the net-1.1 and net-2-0 directories.

I played with the installer and technically you are correct, it is in
the installer, but doesn't get included in the "Typical" install.
Enabling the "Unit Tests for NUnit under .NET 1.1" made the file show up
on my system. I didn't see it because I don't develop for .NET 1.1.

That's correct. I suppose the docs may be a little misleading, since they don't indicate you have to do anything special in order to be able to run the tests. So either the docs or the "typical" install should be changed - I'll think about which is best.
