  1. Teamcity integration Object reference not set to an instance of an object at nCrunch.Compiler.DotNet

    Do you have the build server configured to perform a restore step before running NCrunch? I suspect this package may not exist in the restore paths prior to the NCrunch console tool being invoked. When trying to find the installation of Dotnet, NCrunch will first check the DOTNET_MSBUILD_SDK_RES…

    Thanks! Can you confirm if you have the dotnet.exe file in your system PATH environment variable?

  3. VSTest playlist

    [quote=GurdipS;15875] This may be for TeamCity (my build server), but how can I fail a build if code coverage is below a metric?[/quote] We don't have any feature inside NCrunch that can fail the build based on code coverage percentages, but the console tool does output a range of reports and XM…

  4. Teamcity integration Object reference not set to an instance of an object at nCrunch.Compiler.DotNet

    Hi, thanks for posting. Can you confirm if you have any version of the .NET Core (or .NET5/6) SDK installed on this machine?

  5. VSTest playlist

    Hi, thanks for posting. Sorry, we don't support vstest playlists. You might want to look at using [url=https://www.ncrunch.net/documentation/concepts_test-categories]test categories[/url] and [url=https://www.ncrunch.net/documentation/concepts_engine-modes]custom engine modes[/url] instead.

  6. MSTest AssemblyInitialize & TestContext

    Hi, thanks for sharing this. There's a bit of history behind why this is the way that it is. The properties in the TestContext here (namely ResultsDirectory, which is the one you're after) get populated by MSTest when it sets up a temporary deployment directory prior to the tests being run. Var…

    [quote=Marcello;15865]Hi Remco, The new build fixes the issue! Thanks a lot for your effort.[/quote] Great to hear! Thanks for your patience. We got there in the end :)

  8. Test Run Life Cycle

    Hi Ed, Thanks for sharing this. Your Test_Factory method is invoked by NUnit during a test discovery step that under NCrunch is physically separate from the execution of tests, and in some cases is even run in an entirely different process. It's dangerous to introduce direct dependencies betwee…

    [quote=Marcello;15863]Do we need an additional license for v4.12.0.1?[/quote] As far as I can tell, the licenses for your site are still well within their support period, so v4.12 should work fine with your existing licenses.

    [quote=Marcello;15861]Can v4.12.0.1 be installed side-by-side with v4.11.0.2? I ask this because when we upgraded from v.4.9 to v.4.11 all the developers here had to upgrade the client in their machine as well.[/quote] Sorry, I had to change the grid protocol to implement this fix, so v4.12 wo…

    [quote=spolonski;15859]Sorry, i can't reproduce it anymore. I have not saved files from the directory C:\Users\f-tfsbuild\AppData\Local\NCrunch\BuildSystem [/quote] Fair enough :) The fix included in this build makes NCrunch more resilient to corruption of this particular directory. I think…

    Thanks for confirming this. I'm wondering if you can check the following for me: - Is there any difference if you specify the version of Visual Studio to be used by the console tool through the /VS parameter? - Which versions of Visual Studio or the MSBuild tools do you have installed on your b…

  15. NCrunch cannot build .NET Standard 2.0 projects

    Great work, I think you've found it. Here is the .nuget.g.targets file as it exists on my machine (prior to being uploaded to the grid node): [code] <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?> <Project ToolsVersion="14.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003"> …

  16. Load Failure

    The logs indicated that this setting is overridden for a number of the projects in your solution. I've identified an issue that can cause erroneous behaviour when the setting has different values between projects. Does removing the setting value at project level for all your projects (thus mak…

  17. Load Failure

    Thanks for sending this through. Could you confirm for me if you have the NCrunch 'Build process CPU architecture' setting set to a consistent value for all the projects in your solution, and if not, does setting this to the same thing for all projects resolve the issue?

  18. NCrunch cannot build .NET Standard 2.0 projects

    I've done some experimentation here with a local VM and I'm wondering if you could try a few things for me. The relevant item here is the protobuf-net.csproj.nuget.g.props inside the obj directory in the workspace on the grid node. This file contains the references to the Nuget package root used…

  19. NCrunch cannot build .NET Standard 2.0 projects

    Thanks! This is extremely interesting. The protobuf-net.csproj.nuget.g.props file contains a number of paths that don't appear to have been correctly mapped by NCrunch. It's not clear to me yet why this fails in your environment but not others. I'm going to take a deeper look at this and will ge…

  20. NCrunch cannot build .NET Standard 2.0 projects

    Thanks for showing this. When you perform a /t:Restore in the NCrunch workspace, you are replacing the platform bindings in the workspace with new bindings that are set up for the grid node. This isn't a solution we can implement in NCrunch, as it significantly slows the build system on the nodes …
