  1. Why is this weakref test failing according to NCrunch but passing according to visual studio?

    This behaviour is due to the effect of NCrunch's instrumentation on garbage collection within the CLR. You can find some more details about this at: http://forum.ncrunch.net/yaf_postst182_Liveness-extended-with-enabled-timing.aspx To work around this problem, you can [url=http://www.ncrunch.net/…

  2. NCrunch not showing correct color "balls" in the gutter

    Sorry. It may be that this is a mapping problem then. If you're able to put together a complete sample, I'd really like to take a look! Cheers, Remco

  3. 'Enable ncrunch' wizard is a minor annoyance

    The wizard does remember your global configuration, and will only present you with questions that are relevant to the solution that you've just started using NCrunch on. The problem with remembering previous choices with solution-specific configuration is that there are no guarantees that they wi…

  4. NCrunch not showing correct color "balls" in the gutter

    Hi Lars, Thanks for posting and happy new year! It is difficult to tell whether the lines should be green or not, as this would depend upon the execution manner of this expressions in this statement. With the exception of the first line of the statement, the code shown above will not execut…

  5. $(MSBuildThisFileDirectory) is not supported?

    Hi Leonid - Thanks for reporting this issue. NCrunch relies on MSBuild abstractions when attempting to work with expressions such as this one. I'm wondering if this may be a .NET 4.0/4.5 version related issue of some kind. I'll take a deeper look and will see if I can identify a fix for it. …

  6. Docked NCrunch tests window forgets where I was

    Fantastic, thanks so much! I'll take a look and will see what I can do. Cheers, Remco

  7. Build error using reference path

    Hi Juergen, Thanks for the in-depth analysis. I've managed to reproduce this problem locally. It looks as though NCrunch isn't picking up the reference paths during its analysis of the project at load time. I'll see what I can do about getting this issue fixed in the next minor release. C…

  8. Docked NCrunch tests window forgets where I was

    Thanks for the screenshots, this is a huge help in understanding what is happening here :) It looks to me as though this problem is data related. I can't reproduce it myself, so I'm wondering if there may be a way to get hold of this data ... Looking at the project names you've shown above, i…

  9. How do I tell NCrunch to ignore a project?

    There's a few ways you can do this. The way that I generally recommend is to mark each of the tests with a distinctive category, then set up a custom [url=http://www.ncrunch.net/documentation/concepts_engine-modes]engine mode[/url] that will avoid automatically running tests that are marked with th…

  10. Word Wrap and Markers

    NCrunch places the markers as adornments embedded in the source code. This approach has several benefits, such as lower risk of alignment problems, simpler implementation and better clarity as the markers are closer to the lines of code they represent. However, there are also drawbacks. Code th…

  11. Build error using reference path

    Hi, thanks for posting! Can you tell me a bit more about the VS Reference Path you are using? Is this represented as a normal <ProjectReference> tag inside the build XML? Or is it some other mechanism? Can you show me the build XML that is placed in your project file representing the reference…

  12. NCrunch is trying to compile HTML!

    Hi, thanks for posting! NCrunch should only be executing a normal build process against your project. This would be the same as just running a command-line MSBuild against the project file itself - so the errors are coming from your build process rather than NCrunch itself. Do you have any st…

  13. Getting started

    Hi Alberto, Merry Christmas! You can find more information about the option [url=http://www.ncrunch.net/documentation/reference_solution-configuration_allow-tests-in-parallel-with-themselves]here[/url]. Cheers, Remco

  14. Markers not clickable

    Great to hear! Keep an eye out for it - if it comes back, we'll see if we can deduct what caused the configuration to go askew ...

  15. Unignore all tests in a specified namespace?

    Hi, thanks for posting! Usually when this sort of symptom is reported (i.e. system overloaded, not responding, etc), the underlying problem is in the nature of the tests that are being executed. NCrunch exerts very tight control over processing resources used during test execution, although it c…

  16. Docked NCrunch tests window forgets where I was

    Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. I'm wondering if you could explain in a little more detail how the window itself forgets its position. Is it that when you click on the window, it scrolls back to the top? Also, I just want to make certain you're referring to the tree itself and not to the tex…

  17. Markers not clickable

    Thanks Yang - I received the report and I'm looking into the issue. I'll follow up with you directly. Cheers, Remco

  18. "// ncrunch coverage" allow subsequent text

    Thanks for the suggestion! This should be an easy change and the value is very clear. I'll see what I can do.

  19. Markers not clickable

    Thanks Yang. If you see this happen again, could you send through a bug report? I have a feeling that the click event may be throwing an exception of some kind, and the bug report should be able to show me this in the included log file.

  20. Enable is disabled

    Hi, thanks for posting! Can you share some more details about the behaviour in this situation? Do you receive any messages from NCrunch? When you say that the 'Enable' option is disabled, do you mean that it is greyed out in the menu, or that you click it and nothing happens? Something that …
