[erlang-questions] Eunit multinode test help.

[fess]

Where is the best place for questions about eunit?  I can't find any  
hints of mailing lists or forums [ except a comments trail http:// 
support.process-one.net/doc/display/CONTRIBS/EUnit which looks  
inappropriate. ]

Running the following test:

start_node_fixture_test_() ->
   { Node, Host } = split_node(node()),
   S  = Node ++ "_slave",
   RN = erlang:list_to_atom( S ++ "@" ++ Host),
   { node, RN, { setup,    { spawn, RN },    fun  
start_node_test_setup/0,
     fun start_node_test_cleanup/1,
     [
       % w/out the list eunit doesn't run test_1 on remote node?
       fun start_node_test_1/0
     ]
   }}.

I get the following error:

*unexpected termination of test process*
::{badarg,[{erlang,atom_to_list,[[]]},
            {eunit_lib,fun_parent,1},
            {eunit_data,parse_function,1},
            {eunit_data,next,1},
            {eunit_data,iter_next,1},
            {eunit_data,iter_do,3},
            {eunit_proc,tests_inorder,3},
            {eunit_proc,with_timeout,3}]}


and I'm at a loss.   Any help is greatly appreciated.
