How do I test multiple browsers with selenium and a single NUnit suite and keep it DRY?

Question

I\'m looking for a way to reuse one NUnit test suite without duplicating the entire suite for each browser. It seems like I would need a new fixture for each browser. Can I send

NUnit 2.5+ supports Generic Test Fixtures which make testing in multiple browsers very straightforward. http://www.nunit.org/index.php?p=testFixture&r=2.5

Building the following will create two "GoogleTest" NUnit tests, one for Firefox and one for IE.

using NUnit.Framework;
using OpenQA.Selenium;
using OpenQA.Selenium.Firefox;
using OpenQA.Selenium.IE;
using System.Threading;

namespace SeleniumTests 
{
    [TestFixture(typeof(FirefoxDriver))]
    [TestFixture(typeof(InternetExplorerDriver))]
    public class TestWithMultipleBrowsers where TWebDriver : IWebDriver, new()
    {
        private IWebDriver driver;

        [SetUp]
        public void CreateDriver () {
            this.driver = new TWebDriver();
        }

        [Test]
        public void GoogleTest() {
            driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("http://www.google.com/");
            IWebElement query = driver.FindElement(By.Name("q"));
            query.SendKeys("Bread" + Keys.Enter);

            Thread.Sleep(2000);

            Assert.AreEqual("bread - Google Search", driver.Title);
            driver.Quit();
        }
    }
}
