  1. JustMock 2026 Q4 "Removed the legacy JustJockRunner.exe"

    Yes, the version above should have a compatible protocol with the v5.24 build on the download page. Naturally without the update on the client the fix won't be present unless they use a grid node.

  2. JustMock 2026 Q4 "Removed the legacy JustJockRunner.exe"

    Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. We were integrated with the JustMockRunner.exe that has just been removed. I've implemented a speculative fix to tie us into the replacement EXE which seems to have a slightly different parameter line. Unfortunately I can't verify it because I don't have a dev…

  3. NCrunch MCP use with Claude Code

    My first thought here is that the difference in performance could be explained by a configuration difference, specifically the 'Max number of processing threads' setting has a significant impact on startup times because it determines how many projects the engine is allowed to load in parallel. Wh…

  4. runtime-async=on with instrumentation results all async tests failing with invalid program exceptions

    Hi, thanks for sharing this. Yes, this looks like it's going to take some work for NCrunch to support. I'm looking into it now. Sorry, I can't promise a quick fix here. I recommend leaving this off for now under NCrunch.

  5. xunit v4 (mtp) and ordered tests

    Thanks! Just confirming that the problem is now gone?

  6. xunit v4 (mtp) and ordered tests

    You've managed to identify a compatibility issue in NCrunch's xunit adapter. The issue stems from a 9 year old piece of code that handles support for test fixtures with custom ordering by marking them with atomic status. In this way, the tests get run together and the order is preserved. The co…

  7. xunit v4 (mtp) and ordered tests

    Hi, thanks for posting. The attributes you're using are under the control of your targeted test framework and aren't considered by NCrunch. Most likely the behaviour you were experiencing was circumstantial rather than intentional. NCrunch isn't able to work with test suites that need to be exe…

  8. NCrunch MCP use with Claude Code

    Sorry about this. A compatibility change in this area seems to have broken it for some use cases. Could you try the build below and let me know if this solves the problem for you?

  9. NCrunch MCP use with Claude Code

    Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. Claude is supported, since it's a common interface, but there is no direct integration with Claude code. I haven't personally experimented with using the HTTP based MCP server with an IDE that doesn't have NCrunch installed - it's intended more for fully autono…

  10. Rebuild with restore MCP ability

    [quote]PS: would be a good thing if the agent had a way to make sure that there were restores since its last changes. Maybe a 'restored' property or so ?[/quote] I'm not sure if I grasp the purpose behind this. Is the agent missing changes that require a restore?

  11. Observable Visual Studio, git remote + NCrunch.MCP.http

    Thanks for sharing this issue. Having the MCP server just work out of the box was a problem, because IDEs are designed to be reasonably paranoid about the sorts of facilities that are offered to agents automatically. It is necessary to [url=https://www.ncrunch.net/documentation/tools_mcp-server]…

  12. Rebuild with restore MCP ability

    The build below includes changes that should force projects to restore and reload when directory.build.props or directory.packages.props files are updated on disk. I'm hopeful that this will solve the problem for you. It also contains a number of other improvements to the MCP server, including RDI…

  13. Rebuild with restore MCP ability

    Centralized package management creates a blind spot for NCrunch's project file sync, because it puts critical load-time details outside the project file. The MCP server normally restores packages when it loads projects from disk, so changes to package references directly inside project files should…

  14. visual studio hangs when resizing, dump suggests ncrunch problem

    Thanks for these extra details. A few more questions: - Can you reproduce this consistently? What steps are required? - Do you have any DPI scaling active? Does this ever change during your session? (i.e. plugging in/unplugging monitors) - Does this problem seem to be long standing? Or did it…

  15. MSTest AssertInconclusiveException in async test not being ignored

    Thanks for sharing this. NCrunch only has partial support for this kind of scenario, through the configuration setting [url=https://www.ncrunch.net/documentation/reference_project-configuration_consider-inconclusive-tests-as-passing]consider inconclusive tests as passing[/url]. Basically, corr…

  16. MCP server suddenly failed to reply to ping

    Thanks! A fix will be out for it in the next build.

  17. MCP server suddenly failed to reply to ping

    No, this seems to be a regression caused by an unrelated fix. Thanks for flagging it. Is it causing any immediate problems for you?

  18. visual studio hangs when resizing, dump suggests ncrunch problem

    Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. Can you share the stack trace from the UI thread?

  19. MCP server suddenly failed to reply to ping

    Thanks for sharing this issue. As you've identified, the NCrunch MCP server doesn't implement the ping function. There's also been a problem where calling an unsupported function isn't returning a standard result. My guess would be that an update to co-pilot made it more particular in regards to …

  20. NCrunch Cannot run tests where Spans are being created

    Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. I may have made some progress in getting to the bottom of this. Would you like to try the build below to see if it solves the problem for you? [url=https://s3.amazonaws.com/downloads.ncrunch.net/NCrunch_Console_5.24.0.6.msi]NCrunch_Console_5.24.0.6.msi[/url]…
