Could not load file or assembly RestEase

Issue

When creating a .NET framework console app targeting .NET 4.7.2 and referencing the WireMock.Net.RestClient NuGet you get this exception when running the application:

Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'RestEase, Version=1.4.10.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. A strongly-named assembly is required. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131044)

This is because the WireMock.Net assemblies are signed, and RestEase is not signed.

Solution

The solution is to add the NuGet Brutal.Dev.StrongNameSigner to your .NET framework console app.
