nunit3-console "--showcopy" option becomes broken with SpecFlow 3.4.3

[Wenning Qiu]

Our smoke test job started failing with the error below after upgrading SpecFlow to 3.4.3 from 2.3.2. The error disappeared after removing "--shadowcopy" option.

D:\work\Modules\Framework\trunk>lib\debug\nunit3-console.exe --workers=1 --shadowcopy /framework:net-4.5 /config:Debug /work:Reports --where "cat != SlowTests && cat != SpecFlow" /result:TestResult-x64.xml;format=nunit2 Bin\Debug\net48\CSG.Framework.Test.dll

[Andreas Willich]

It looks like that the nunit3 console runner doesn't copy all assemblies in the shadow folder.

It is missing the runtime plugin for your unit test runner (TechTalk.SpecFlow.NUnit.SpecFlowPlugin.dll or similar).
