Issue :

BindingFailure was detected

Message: The assembly with display name 'Microsoft.Practices.ServiceLocation' failed to load in the 'Load' binding context of the AppDomain with ID 2. The cause of the failure was: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Practices.ServiceLocation, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

Reason and Solution:

This happens when the required dll was not present in your References. Most cases this will get solved bu adding the Microsoft.Practices.ServiceLocation dll to your references.

You can find this dll (in case u dont have any) from http://commonservicelocator.codeplex.com/

Download the dll and add it to the references. Rebuild the solution and press F5. This should execute without any failure.

Sometimes You already may have this assembly referenced and still facing this error. In such cases you can remove it from the references and add again. This should do the trick. 

Its actually the Managed Debugging Assistant gives you an alert about a potential problem . You can go to Debug--> Exceptions and unchecked the option .
