  3. NCrunch fails to test Newtonsoft's JObject.Parse() in .NET Core 2.1

    The [url=https://www.ncrunch.net/download]just released v3.18[/url] includes a proper fix for this issue, so hopefully there shouldn't be any need to add these Nuget to work around the problem anymore.

  4. ASP.NET Core 2.1 integration tests

    [quote=sextondjc;12475]Are there any workarounds in the meantime?[/quote] NCrunch v3.18 has just been released including the NCrunch-side solution to this problem. Unfortunately, the solution won't be effective until [url=https://github.com/aspnet/Mvc/pull/8073]ASP.NET pull request 8073[/url] go…

  5. License server technology and HA configuration

    Hi Tom, Thanks posting! The license server is a classic ASP.NET MVC web application. It backs onto a proprietary binary datafile (not SQL based). It's all a custom job - there is no 3rd party system in place. The application hasn't been designed for failover, due to the way state is centr…

  6. NCrunch exception when building .net core xunit project

    [quote=sgrassie;12471] I forgot to mention in my first post, I get a message saying: "Unable to restore require Nuget packages for .NET Core test environment". [/quote] When you have problems like this one, a message like this is definitely a red flag. NCrunch has certain package dependencies …

  7. Run a category of tests in parallel but exclusively from other tests?

    Great to hear! Thanks for confirming that the problem is solved :)

  8. NCrunch exception when building .net core xunit project

    Hi, thanks for posting! Note that Xamarin projects are not currently supported by NCrunch, so there isn't much I can do to help with this issue. It's possible this is being caused by a malformed reference due to platform targeting issues. Try adding Nuget references to the following package…

  9. Run a category of tests in parallel but exclusively from other tests?

    Hi Daniel, thanks for posting! NCrunch's parallel execution works across multiple processes. It won't run threads in parallel within the same process. So unless your Messenger class is somehow backing onto state outside the process (i.e. the file system, registry, network), there is no risk of …

  10. NCrunch Gid Node Configuration Utility should be signed

    Hi Albert, Thanks for the heads up. I didn't realise this wasn't being signed! We'll get that fixed.

  11. Testing between different projects

    Hi, thanks for posting! NCrunch doesn't prescribe a particular workflow. Instead, it's better to just look at it as a test runner that works continuously. You don't need to write the test first. You can actually write several test stubs and then choose to write the production code sometime lat…

  12. ASP.NET Core 2.1 integration tests

    The pull request for this change has been accepted from MS's side. My understanding is that it should be in the v2.2 release of the library. I'm not sure when v2.2 is expected. Hopefully when it arrives, we'll have NCrunch v3.18 released so that we're ready for it. If not, I'll just push an earl…

  13. NCrunch, JustMock and xUnit1

    Hi Daniel, Thanks for sharing this issue. NCrunch uses Gallio to integrate with Xunit v1. At the time this was implemented, it was deemed simpler to tie into Gallio and thereby get immediate support for both MbUnit and Xunit at the same time, avoiding the need to integrate with each one separ…

  14. NCrunch fails to test Newtonsoft's JObject.Parse() in .NET Core 2.1

    Adding a Nuget reference from your test project to System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter will resolve this problem without apparent side-effects. The problem here is caused by the bindings to packages originating from the NCrunch assemblies (which are built for .NET Core 1.0/2.0). Under .NET Core …

  15. Array as datarow attribute parameter

    Hi Konstantin, Do you experience this problem if you set your 'Framework utilisation type for MSTest' to 'DynamicAnalysis'? DynamicAnalysis provides better support for edge cases like this one.

  16. Release Cadence

    Hi Craig, I do apologise for this, as our releases really are all over the place. The main reason for this is the nature of the work on NCrunch. Most software can be developed on its own timetable, where features are the priority and releases are organised around them. This makes it possible…

  17. NCrunch fails to test Newtonsoft's JObject.Parse() in .NET Core 2.1

    Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. I've managed to reproduce it exactly as you've described it. This looks to be a compatibility issue between .NET Core 2.1, NCrunch and the latest version of Newtonsoft.Json. I've noticed that when switching Newtonsoft.Json to v10.0.3, the problem doesn't app…

  18. Theory with datetime randomly is not being executed (see example)

    Hi, thanks for posting! This use case is not supported under NCrunch. [url=https://www.ncrunch.net/documentation/considerations-and-constraints_unique-test-names]See here for more details[/url].

  20. Using System.Xml in .NET Core 2 gives FileNotFoundException for System.Collections.NonGeneric

    Hi, if you're experiencing this problem and the Nuget hack doesn't fix it, then you're probably experiencing a different problem. If you can reduce it to a sample solution that you can share with me, I can help investigate further. You're welcome to submit code securely through the [url=https://…
