+## NUnit Console & Engine 3.12 Beta 1 - August 1, 2020
+
+This is the first beta release of the NUnit Console able to run .NET Core Tests. 
+In addition to this, this release also contains a number of bug fixes, improvements 
+when running on Mono and significant refactoring work towards the goal of creating an 
+engine able to run tests on a wider range of .NET platforms.
+
+We're particularly interested in this beta release being tested by users of the .NET Core 
+console and users running tests on Mono. Please feedback any issues to the nunit-console repository.
+
+The .NET Core Console is a separate executable to the original version, and can be found in either 
+the .zip file download, or the new NUnit.Console-Runner.NetCore NuGet package. Our longer-term aim 
+is to create a single console which is able to run both .NET Core and .NET Framework tests.
+
+Code contributions in this release were included from Charlie Poole, Chris Maddock, Christian Bay, 
+Eberhard Beilharz, Joseph Musser, Manohar Singh and Mikkel Nylander Bundgaard. Thank you to all 
+those who contributed both in code, and other ways!
