Castle Windsor RC3 Detests MSTest?: DeserializeElement cannot process element configSections

 

I'm exasperated getting Castle Windsor to work with MSTest.  For once, it's not the other way around :)  Here's the partial code tries to resolve a database provider using Windsor.  The App.config in my MSTest project is copied to a TestResults folder with a *.dll.config extension [I didn't know .Net started allowing .dll.config files.  Well may not be, but that's a topic for another post!). 

Here's my app.config [ThinkFarAhead.WordReporter.Data.UnitTest.dll.config]:

    1 <?xml version="1.0"?>

    2 <configuration>

    3   <configSections>

    4     <section name="castle"

    5         type="Castle.Windsor.Configuration.AppDomain.CastleSectionHandler, Castle.Windsor" />

    6 

    7   </configSections>

    8 

    9   <castle>

   10     <components>

   11       <component id="DbTypeSql"

   12             service="ThinkFarAhead.WordReporter.Data.IDbCreator"

   13             type="ThinkFarAhead.WordReporter.Data.SqlDbCreator, ThinkFarAhead.WordReporter.Data">

   14       </component>

   15       <component id="DbTypeOracle"

   16             service="ThinkFarAhead.WordReporter.Data.IDbCreator"

   17             type="ThinkFarAhead.WordReporter.Data.OracleDbCreator, ThinkFarAhead.WordReporter.Data">

   18       </component>

   19       <component id="DbTypeOledb"

   20             service="ThinkFarAhead.WordReporter.Data.IDbCreator"

   21             type="ThinkFarAhead.WordReporter.Data.OleDbDbCreator, ThinkFarAhead.WordReporter.Data">

   22       </component>

   23       <component id="DbTypeOdbc"

   24             service="ThinkFarAhead.WordReporter.Data.IDbCreator"

   25             type="ThinkFarAhead.WordReporter.Data.OdbcDbCreator, ThinkFarAhead.WordReporter.Data">

   26       </component>

   27     </components>

   28   </castle>

   29 </configuration>

Here's the code that tries to inject dependencies:

   37         private static string WindsorConfigFile;

   38         static DbCreatorFactory()

   39         {

   40             WindsorConfigFile = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation.ConfigurationFile; //  set // "Windsor.config"; //string.Format(@"{0}\Windsor.Config", Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().CodeBase));

   41         }

   42 

   43         //Removed statically typed enum [that cannot be extended at runtime]

   44         //Here at least other clients can pass anything

   45         public static IDbCreator GetDBCreator()

   46         {

   47             WindsorContainer container = new WindsorContainer(WindsorConfigFile);

   48             IDbCreator creator = container.Resolve<IDbCreator>(UserPreferences.Instance.LocalDataStoreChosen);

   49             return creator;

   50         }

Here's my MSTest code:

   69         [TestMethod]

   70         public void CheckObjectCreation()

   71         {

   72             string[] databaseTypes = new string[] { "DbTypeSql", "DbType.Oracle" }; //, "DbType.Oledb", "DbType.Odbc"};

   73             Type [] dbCreators = new Type [] { typeof(SqlDbCreator), typeof(OracleDbCreator)}; //, typeof(OracleDbCreator), typeof(OleDbDbCreator)

   74             for (int i = 0; i < databaseTypes.Length; i++)

   75             {

   76                 UserPreferences.Instance.LocalDataStoreChosen = databaseTypes[i];

   77                 if(!(DbCreatorFactory.GetDBCreator() == dbCreators[i]))

   78                 {

   79                     Assert.Fail(string.Format("Type {0} instantiated incorrectly for key {1}", dbCreators[i].ToString(), databaseTypes[i]));

   80                 }

   81             }

   82         }

It fails with:
