Usually categories are used like this:
[TestFixture, Category("UnitTest")]

When used this way, ReSharper finds the unittest category, and places the test beneath this treenode. Great so far.

From NUnit version 2.4, custom attributes has been possible. A custom attribute is a subclass of CategoryAttribute, which make it possible to strong type your test categories like this:

[TestFixture, UnitTest]

by creating a subclass of CategoryAttribute called UnitTestAttribute. This work through the nunit console by specifying /include=UnitTest because NUnit uses the attributes name as parameter to the constructor of the CategoryAttribute class.
