  1. MSpec test using RazorEngine fails on some machines but does not fail in Resharper or MSpec runner

    Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. Does enabling the NCrunch project-level 'Pre-load all assembly references into test environment' setting on the relevant test project resolve this issue?

  2. Build failing on signing (NCrunch bug when the key is outside of the project source?)

    [quote=larsendaniel;7776] As for disabling signing, I'm open to this option as a workaround if we can get it to work. I need to apply the option to most of my projects, since many of them are signed by default in our system. However I remember running into issues with access when I tried that bef…

  3. Build failing on signing (NCrunch bug when the key is outside of the project source?)

    What sort of pattern do you see around the occurrence of this problem? Does it happening intermittently? (i.e. 1 out of every X times), or is it more like a magnet? (i.e. it starts failing and keeps failing until it suddenly starts consistently working). Since I cannot reproduce the problem and …

  4. NCrunch build failure after adding Microsoft.Net.Compilers package.

    Hi Andy, This is most likely caused by an implicit dependency on the compiler resources inside the NuGet package - [url=http://www.ncrunch.net/documentation/considerations-and-constraints_implicit-file-dependencies]http://www.ncrunch.net/documentation/considerations-and-constraints_implicit-file-…

  5. Build failing on signing (NCrunch bug when the key is outside of the project source?)

    Hi, Thanks for sharing this issue. Looking at this in detail, I can think of two possibilities: 1. We're missing some kind of key information - For example, perhaps something is tampering with the key file. Maybe its being generated somewhere, or there are file permissions that restrict ac…

  6. How to enable NuGet Package Restore with NCrunch?

    It's likely that your problem isn't related to the restoration of Nuget packages, and is probably just an implicit build reference into other areas of the package. Try including your Nuget 'packages' directory using the NCrunch solution-level 'Additional files to include' setting. This will instru…

  7. How to enable NuGet Package Restore with NCrunch?

    [quote=Jduff;7760]"When working with NCrunch, you should always restore your packages inside the foreground solution instead" Sorry for the newbie question but can you explain this please? I'm trying to work w/command line nuget and need a way to get the nuget packages restored. Thanks.[/quot…

  8. How to reload app.config at runtime

    Hi, thanks for posting! Without attempting to hack/override the .NET configuration system, I broadly know of two ways to achieve what you're trying to do: 1. Create a new application domain, specifying the path to a different (modified) .config file, and using this application domain to call i…

  9. Chocolatey Packages

    [quote=DanHil;7758] I see. I would propose a package that is mainly for individual developers or small teams, i.e. it will make use of some simplifications: 1. It will not use SSL 2. It will not use a hostname 3. it will work only with "current" IIS (8?) 4. No security permissions in addition…

  10. Chocolatey Packages

    [quote=DanHil;7756] OK, so there is a text file for the license server. I can obviously use that. However. is there also a way to register a version during installation, without the involvement of a license server? [/quote] I'm not entirely certain what you mean by this question - if you're ask…

  11. Chocolatey Packages

    Hi Daniel, Great to hear from you! I hope you've been keeping well :) Thanks so much for your help in maintaining these installers. I'd be happy to offer my official consent - do let me know how to go about doing that! At the moment there are no plans to introduce an installer for the lic…

  12. How to put "set engine modes" to the toolbar\give hem shortkeys?

    I'm afraid that this is impossible. VS is quite precious about its toolbar elements, and adding a user controlled item to the toolbar dynamically is a challenge worthy of a project itself. Note that the engine modes are accessible by key sequence - Try: Alt-U, S, 4

  13. How to configure NUnit file to execute test cases of a solution file.

    Hi akb, thanks for posting! When NCrunch creates a test runner to run your tests, it follows the standard .NET convention by loading the config file which has the same name as the test assembly. This means that for the AllTests.Config file to be used by NCrunch, you'll need to rename this and en…

  14. NCrunch does not see tests

    Hi, thanks for sharing this. The first thing to check is whether there is an inconsistency in the way the tests are counted. When NCrunch reports the number of tests it's monitoring, this is the number of leaf-node tests only - it does not include virtual constructs such as fixtures, parameteris…

  16. Any way to restrict access to the license server?

    Hi, This is an incoming feature for v2.17 of NCrunch/LicenseServer. The new version will allow you to blacklist or whitelist based on a number of parameters, including the user's login name (which should correspond with a domain account). I have an early build if you'd like to give it a try. …

    If it happened once, it'll probably happen again! Let me know if you learn any more about it.

  20. Grid node server "Not connected"

    [quote=Jaben;7729]Suggestion related to this: for status, show "Disabled" instead of "Not Connected" :)[/quote] Good thinking. Thanks :)
