@copilot I'm noticing some brackets not complete, eg some malformed statements in the NUnit tests Make sure to use the central nuget package management, not specifying the packages direct in the csproj |

@copilot this is incorrect, we already have net8.0-windows, so including net8.0 is incorrect

Fixed! Removed the redundant net8.0 and net9.0 target frameworks from the Windows condition, leaving only net8.0-windows10.0.17763.0 and net9.0-windows10.0.17763.0 since the Windows-specific targets are supersets. Also completed the xUnit cleanup by changing the remaining Xunit reference to NUnit.Framework in the Using statements. (9e4f014)

... Fixed! The mass compilation errors were caused by malformed Assert.That statements during the xUnit to NUnit migration. I've corrected all syntax issues: Fixed errors:

Pull Request Overview
This PR completely migrates ReactiveUI's test suite from xUnit + FluentAssertions to NUnit 4.4.0 with controlled concurrency to better handle ReactiveUI's static-heavy codebase.
- Replaces xunit (2.9.3), xunit.runner.visualstudio (3.1.4), FluentAssertions (8.6.0), and Xunit.StaFact (1.2.69) with NUnit (4.4.0) and NUnit3TestAdapter (5.*)
- Implements controlled parallelism with fixtures running in parallel but tests within fixtures running sequentially to prevent static state conflicts
- Migrates 67+ test files from xUnit/FluentAssertions syntax to NUnit's constraint model and proper STA thread support for WPF/WinForms tests

The Assert.That statements have malformed syntax. The constraint syntax is incorrect - commas are in wrong positions and parentheses are misplaced. Should be Assert.That((int)RegistrationNamespace.None, Is.EqualTo(0)) and Assert.That(Enum.IsDefined(typeof(RegistrationNamespace), RegistrationNamespace.XamForms), Is.True).

The Assert.That calls have malformed syntax with misplaced commas and constraints. Should be Assert.That(intConverter.TryConvert(42, typeof(string), null, out var intResult), Is.True) - the constraint should be separate from the method parameters.

The Assert.That statements have incorrect syntax with array elements mixed into the assertion parameters. Should be Assert.That(processedItems, Is.EqualTo(new[] { 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 })) and Assert.That(skippedLast, Is.EqualTo(new[] { 1, 2, 3 })).
