  1. MSpec Tags are ignored with custom build engine.

    Thanks. I gave this one a spin but couldn't reproduce any problems. I'm wondering if perhaps we should take a closer look at your workflow. Do you switch engine modes very regularly, or queue tests manually at any time?

  2. Well done!

    This post made my day :) Thank you!!

  3. NCrunch + ReSharper

    I'm aware that ReSharper does have a way of monitoring memory consumption within Visual Studio, and I've been told that the consumption does usually also include memory allocated by NCrunch. At present there are no known memory leaks caused by NCrunch within the Visual Studio IDE, although natura…

  4. Chocolatey installer

    Thanks for the suggestion! I'll see what I can do. Cheers, Remco

  5. MSpec Tags are ignored with custom build engine.

    Thanks, this confirms that the problem is inside the test filtering and execution rather than the category recognition - with does help to narrow things down. I've done some extra testing at my end and couldn't reproduce any obvious problems around category filtering with this engine mode conditi…

  6. MSpec Tags are ignored with custom build engine.

    Hi! The first thing to check is whether or not NCrunch has detected the categories that you've assigned to the tests. In the Tests Window, right click the column headers and select the 'Field Chooser'. Drag the category field into the Tests Window. This field should show any category that NCru…

  7. Projects won't build

    Welcome! Thanks for your patience in sticking through this. It seems to me that you have some very complex environments (at least from an NCrunch perspective), which do tend to make an NCrunch implementation challenging .. but it is also very rewarding. You are helping to make NCrunch a better an…

  8. Getting build errors after a delay - project builds and runs fine

    Hi Jay, Thanks for getting back to me on this. Modifying the project file in its original solution location is something I'm not sure if I want to tangle with - as so far NCrunch has managed to avoid any situation where it actually manipulates your original source code. I might have a bit of a …

  9. Test fails without error message

    There's a lot going on in this solution. I'm wondering if the fix you found in the other thread related to DLLs being referenced in the Bin\Debug directories may have also had an impact on this. Can you let me know if it happens again now that you've solved the other issue? I'm hoping that this p…

  10. Test fails without error message

    Which files were they that you had locked and how were they locked?

  11. Projects won't build

    Great to hear! Yes, I agree that this should be made MUCH more obvious. Normally this kind of behaviour doesn't create obscure problems like you've described above, but I think it would be better to warn people when this happens. NCrunch already tracks direct DLL references to outputs from projec…

  12. Pricing

    Hi Dadhi, Sorry, but if I were to offer licenses at the price of $120 this would be extremely unfair to those that have paid full price for their licenses and are supporting the product. I'm sorry if the licenses are too expensive for you, but this is the price. Thanks for your constructive com…

  13. Disabled tests should not use black icon

    Thanks Ollie, I'll see what I can do.

  14. Disabled tests should not use black icon

    Thanks Ollie - this does make sense, and actually it is a common problem, as it is easy to ignore tests by accident and not realise why NCrunch isn't executing them. What would you think about perhaps a change in the symbol describing the first line of the test? A different colour is probably ov…

  15. Exceptions appear twice

    It looks as though this problem can be broadly reproduced. I'll see what I can do about fixing it in the upcoming minor release. Thanks again!

  16. Exceptions appear twice

    Thanks for reporting this. Do you experience this in every Xunit solution you work in, or just this one?

  17. Test fails without error message

    Is this the same solution that you've been experiencing intermittent xunit.dll build issues with? The bug report shows NCrunch is failing to map the coverage data derived from the workspace, which suggests this may be a symptom of the same problem causing the xunit.dll build issue.

  18. Projects won't build

    The .sln and .csproj files would certainly help. There may not be anything specific in the solution that changes itself - this can also be caused by the files NCrunch is referencing within the solution and whether these files are derived or not. For example, if the xunit.dll file is being referenc…

  19. Disabled tests should not use black icon

    Hi Ollie - Thanks for posting! Ignored tests under NCrunch are completely ignored in every way. They are not executed at any stage by NCrunch, and any data associated with them is thrown away as soon as they are ignored. To have an ignored test storing coverage state (i.e. as different colou…

  20. Projects won't build

    There are two things that jump into my mind when thinking about this problem: 1. Your build is (temporarily?) changing the state of your solution in a way that confuses NCrunch 2. You have a workspace isolation problem After NCrunch has completed an entire cycle (and is sitting idle), what ha…
