<div>The thing with the ode tests is that instead of having them in separate test dll as with all the rest of the tests the ode tests are placed in the same dll as ode plugin. Because of this it does not need to reference the ode plugin dll which would not work. I think we should really push for improvements to prebuild as getting everything to same output directory is not very clean solution considering for example deployment of different exe files to different machines. There is also problem of not being able to clean the bin directory as it permanently contains dll dependencies and even runtime data. In practice I think it is a good pattern that the bin directory is completely emptied on build clean. It would be also nice to be able to build different exe files to their own distribution folders. These last two as a long term goals to consider.</div>
