  1. Unable to find sn.exe for signing an instrumented assembly

    Thanks Sam. I'll make sure the v7.0 is added to the list. NCrunch does also check for Wow6432Node, so I'm fairly certain the problem is just caused by the missed support for this particular version. Did adding one of the other registry keys allow you to work around the problem?

  2. Support for NUnit's ISolutionBuilder and TestSuite

    Thanks Fabio. The solution you sent was extremely useful in isolating the issue. NCrunch seems to be expecting all tests to be under a class that inherits from NUnitTestFixture, which of course would hardly ever be the case for custom NUnit addins. I'll see if I can arrange an experimental build …

  3. Support nunit [TestCase] attribute

    Hi, thanks for posting! I did look into doing this, as there would be clear value behind such a feature. However, the reason it hasn't been implemented is because it is really, really, really hard to do. Currently NCrunch finds code using debugging information emitted by the compiler. Custom a…

  4. Behavior around unused references different from MSTest

    Hi Jni, Thanks for sharing this issue. I can see how the behaviour of NCrunch in this situation could lead to builds failing, and a warning would be a useful thing to have. Because of the way the NCrunch test environment is built, I have a feeling that it will be very challenging to implement…

  5. Issue status

    Hi Wilhelm - Thanks for the feedback. There are plans in place to eventually introduce an issue tracker system that would include some integration with this. Everything that gets submitted through the bug reporter is read and considered anyway, so it's all useful information. If there's someth…

  6. How do I "Retrieve the LoaderExceptions property" please?

    Did the code coverage suppression or disabling of instrumentation make any difference? Also, can you confirm which language the project is developed in?

  7. How do I "Retrieve the LoaderExceptions property" please?

    This looks to be a bug in NCrunch's instrumentation. You may be able to work around it by marking out the offending code blocks with [url=http://www.ncrunch.net/documentation/concepts_code-coverage-suppression]code coverage suppression[/url] comments. An alternative is to disable instrumentation f…

  8. VS2012 update 2 seems to break NCrunch (on some systems)

    Thanks for sharing these details. My suspicion is that this is being caused somehow by the code under test. If you set a breakpoint on the first line of code of one of your tests (i.e. the opening brace), then choose to debug the test, does it hit the breakpoint? .. Or otherwise, are you making…

  9. How do I "Retrieve the LoaderExceptions property" please?

    Hi, Thanks for sharing this issue. I've made a note to introduce a future change to NCrunch to extend the error information to also include inner exception details. Meanwhile, we may need to deductively figure out why the CLR is failing to load your assembly. Do you have any static construct…

  10. VS2012 update 2 seems to break NCrunch (on some systems)

    Thanks for reporting this. I'm wondering if I could ask a few quick questions to help narrow this down: - Do you experience this problem with all solutions? Or just one in particular? - How often does the crash occur? Does it happen on every test cycle? - Do you notice the crash occurs severa…

  11. Lags in the editor after opening the Metrics window

    V2 is on target to be released in the fourth quarter of this year. The work to resolve the UI performance problems is already under way, so I can confirm that it will definitely be in the release :)

  12. Unable to find sn.exe for signing an instrumented assembly

    Hi Sam, It looks as though there's a hole in NCrunch's sn.exe resolution that doesn't cater for the configuration on your dev machine. Right now NCrunch looks in the following registry locations, checking for an 'InstallationFolder' value at: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SD…

  13. Problems with code analysis after upgrade

    Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. The 1.45 release included support for custom code analysis rule sets. Do you have a custom ruleset for this project or solution? I'm wondering if this may be the reason for this problem now surfacing (where it didn't with 1.44). The cause of the problem may…

  14. Lags in the editor after opening the Metrics window

    This makes sense. At the moment, NCrunch can't identify a 'hidden' status, as this is something under the control of Visual Studio. So unless the window is physically closed (via the X), NCrunch will continue to keep it up to date and drag down on the UI. Trying to limit the refresh actions to …

  15. MSpec with Behaviors does not 'Go to selected Test'

    I'll have a bit of a think around this to see if there's clean ways to solve this. There are other future feature areas NCrunch may explore that would open up opportunities here. Thanks for sharing the issue and the suggestions!

  16. Export list of failed tests?

    Hi, Presently there isn't a way that this can be done with NCrunch (to my knowledge). Although, do you mind if I take it as a vote for a future feature? Cheers, Remco

  17. 1.45.12 -- Windows detected that this program did not run correctly

    Is there any code you have running under test that might trigger the compatibility mode assistant? (i.e. are you interacting with any deeper level or legacy APIs?) From a couple of the other issues you've reported earlier, I'm wondering if for some reason your system is having issues with the hos…

  18. Collapse/expand NCrunch Tests window items with arrow keys

    Hi Dan - I'm hoping to introduce an issue tracker some time soon to make it easier to keep tabs on defects and smaller features such as this one. Although right now the product is still priority 1 :) Cheers, Remco

  19. Improve keyboard navigation in the metrics window

    This is a heavily requested feature, for all of the 3 major NCrunch views (Tests Window, Processing Queue, Metrics View). Unfortunately it cannot be implemented at the moment because of the design of the tree component used to construct these views. You'll notice that the tree component has a cell…

  20. Update notification

    Hi Niels - NCrunch has an automatic update notifier that popups up in the bottom right hand corner of Visual Studio, letting you know when a new version is available. Usually I don't turn this on until a few days after the release, as this reduces the risk of any unexpected release problems caus…
