My approach relies on getting the location of the unit testing assembly and then traversing upwards. In the following snippet the variable folderProjectLevel will give you the path to the Unit test project.

string pathAssembly = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location;
string folderAssembly = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(pathAssembly);
if (folderAssembly.EndsWith("\\") == false) {
    folderAssembly = folderAssembly + "\\";
}
string folderProjectLevel = System.IO.Path.GetFullPath(folderAssembly + "..\\..\\");
