  1. Filter "Non blanks" not working for Exclusively Used Resources?

    It looks like this feature doesn't work for any column. Thanks for reporting it. Sadly the component showing the grid for many of the NCrunch windows is nearing the end of its effective life for NCrunch. V2 will likely include a complete replacement, so I'm not sure if it's worth fixing this. …

  2. Difference between ExclusivelyUses and Isolated.

    Hi, It's correct to use the 'ExclusivelyUsesAttribute' for this task. I recommend against using 'IsolatedAttribute', as this will cause each test run to be in a new process (which is counter to the goals you describe above). Provided the integration tests all have the same exclusively used res…

  3. free opensource community license

    Hi, thanks for posting! I'm afraid that I can't offer a discount or free licensing for community/opensource projects. This isn't because I want to shut open source developers out of using the tool, but because any commercial model that would allow this fairly is presently too difficult to admini…

  4. DLLs Copied to project(s) root directory

    Hi James - I'm not yet sure whether the build problems you've described above are caused by the same problem being reported on this thread. Previously when people have reported this problem, it occurs only very infrequently and doesn't regularly cause build issues to appear. I'm wondering if yo…

  5. devenv.exe high CPU usage

    Thanks Peter, This does confirm that it's likely to be NCrunch causing the CPU usage. The next step is understanding why ... I'm wondering if you'd be able to help with answering the following questions. This will help me understand a bit more about your setup: - How CPUs or CPU cores doe…

  6. Passing build parameters

    Hi, thanks for posting! I wasn't aware that this property was in use - so I've made a note on the backlog to have support for it added in a future revision. The best way to work around this problem will depend upon why you are making use of this build property. NCrunch specifically sets a num…

  7. Build failure - SubsetFontWPF.targets: Could not find file

    Thanks, you've given me the key that I need in order to fix this problem in the next revision ("BlendEmbeddedFont"). I'll add this to NCrunch's auto-configuration list so that it will pick up these files in future. As a workaround, I recommend using the 'Additional files to include' configuratio…

  8. Can't uninstall NCrunch if you've already uninstalled Visual Studio 2010

    Hi John - This is currently a known issue, http://forum.ncrunch.net/yaf_postst794_NCrunch-cannot-be-uninstalled-when-VS-2012-is-already-uninstalled-too.aspx .. And a bit of a pain in the neck. I'm hoping to have it fixed soon. It should be possible to trick the NCrunch installer into think…

  9. Unknown constant type build failure

    Thanks for the reproduction! I'll take a look :) Cheers, Remco

  10. Exclude tests by Category (NUnit)

    Hi, thanks for posting! You can currently do this by creating a [url=http://www.ncrunch.net/documentation/concepts_engine-modes]custom engine mode[/url] and adding an exclusion by Category. Cheers, Remco

  11. Unknown constant type build failure

    Great to hear! Setting your configuration to 'Release' probably isn't an ideal long term workaround - I recommend having a look at introducing [url=http://www.ncrunch.net/documentation/troubleshooting_ncrunch-specific-overrides]conditional behaviour inside the project file[/url] to disable the code…

  12. Build failure - SubsetFontWPF.targets: Could not find file

    Hi, thanks for posting! My first guess would be that this looks like a file that is being referenced from your build implicitly, and NCrunch hasn't automatically detected it. You may be able to solve this by including the file using the 'Additional files to include' setting. There's some [url=h…

  13. Unknown constant type build failure

    Thanks Leif! I've had a quick skim over the bug report, although unfortunately the error message wasn't shown in the log. Often with large solutions, the errors can 'run off the top' of the rolling log (which has a limited size). There may, however, be a better way to get more information about…

  14. xunit, ncrunch, VS2012

    Hi, Thanks for the report and the sample solution. The sample solution was particularly helpful in analysing this issue. It looks as though you're making use of an early alpha of v2 of xUnit. Have you tried using NCrunch with a non-alpha version of xUnit? (i.e. 1.9). The behaviour of NCru…

  15. Error when calling unmanaged dll in 1.40b

    Hi, It's becoming increasingly unlikely that this configuration option will ever be removed. None of the new features that were expecting to make use of the .NET hosting API have ever turned out to be stable - it seems the API has a number of quirks that are difficult to pin down. I'll change t…

  16. DLLs Copied to project(s) root directory

    Hi Gareth - Unfortunately I've still had no luck in reproducing this issue consistently, but I can give you some advice on how to find out which project is making use of the contents in the references folder. There are a couple of quick ways you can do this - 1. Examine the NCrunch workspac…

  17. License Issue

    If the above steps don't solve the issue, try the following: 1. Open up VS/NCrunch, go to the license details dialog 2. Select 'Use evaluation license', click OK 3. Restart the IDE 4. Enter your license details 5. Close down the IDE, then clear out the contents of your current user 'temp'…

  18. Unknown constant type build failure

    Thanks, that narrows it down to the build itself (rather than NCrunch manipulation). As it can be quite tough to troubleshoot an issue like this without source code to recreate it, I hope you don't mind me bombarding you with a few questions ... - Which language are you working in? I.e. VB.NET…

  19. Unknown constant type build failure

    Hi, Thanks for posting! Does your build run correctly if you turn off the 'Instrument output assembly' setting for the project showing this error? Also - can you confirm which version of NCrunch you are running? Cheers, Remco

  20. xunit, ncrunch, VS2012

    Hi Chad - Thanks, I just saw the report come through! According to the log, it looks like NCrunch hasn't been enabled. Is there an 'Enable' option available to you under the 'NCrunch' menu?
