  1. Problems with .slnx format on buildserver

    Thanks for sending through the .slnx. It looks like I didn't add handling for the folders. Would you like to try the build below to see if this works for you?

  2. System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Arrays larger than 2GB are not supported.

    [quote=robinz;18708]FYI, I switched to another working directory, and it worked just fine on the same code.[/quote] That's actually quite alarming. It suggests the problem is intermittent or not specific to the structure of the assembly. When you switched directory, what actually changed? Is t…

  3. System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Arrays larger than 2GB are not supported.

    Thanks for letting me know. I have also had another recent report that suggests this is still happening in niche scenarios. I have yet to pin it down in a way that allows me to fix it. You might find you're able to work around the problem by adding a dummy class/method in project, as this shuff…

  4. Problems with .slnx format on buildserver

    Does NCrunch itself (i.e. the IDE plugin) work OK for this .slnx? Is your .slnx something you're able to share with me? If so, could you submit it through the [url=https://www.ncrunch.net/support/contact]NCrunch contact form[/url]?

  5. Problems with .slnx format on buildserver

    Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. v5.20 has a problem where the console tool is trying to load the .slnx file as if it's a .sln. Would you be interested in trying the build below to see if this solves the problem for you? [url=https://s3.amazonaws.com/downloads.ncrunch.net/NCrunch_Console_…

  6. Rider freezes UI very often when combined with NCrunch

    Thanks for sending through the pruned logs. I've taken a look through them. This set of logs doesn't contain anything that directly points to NCrunch being responsible for a performance issue. There are NCrunch threads shown in the logs, but these are all background ones that are well disconnecte…

  7. Rider freezes UI very often when combined with NCrunch

    Oddly, they didn't come through. There is a size limit of around 10MB. Are you maybe able to strip out the parts that seem less relevant? Something that would also be interesting to know is whether the performance issue shows up when the NCrunch engine is disabled (but the plugin is still loade…

  8. There is no way to ignore categories in the engine mode

    Sometimes it can be worth experimenting with a small sample solution with minimal complexity to see if you can make the settings work in the way you expect them to. This can also be useful for reporting defective behaviour, as you can just submit the test solution through the [url=https://www.ncrun…

  9. There is no way to ignore categories in the engine mode

    Thanks for sending through the bug report. This was very useful! The report indicates values for the two major settings you're working with under your engine mode: Tests to execute automatically = 'True' Tests to execute on this machine = 'DoesNotHaveCategory 'Playright'' It looks like ther…

  11. NCrunch Tool Window UI in VS2026 invalid on 4K monitor

    Thanks for all your help in pinning this down. I can reproduce the problems now exactly as you've described them. At the moment it doesn't look like this will be simple to fix. I'll let you know when I have more information on a resolution.

  12. Rider freezes UI very often when combined with NCrunch

    Could you zip them up and put them through the [url=https://www.ncrunch.net/support/contact]contact form[/url]?

  13. NCrunch Tool Window UI in VS2026 invalid on 4K monitor

    Thanks for confirming this. I'm hoping you might be able to share some more details to help me understand where in the lifecycle it's getting out of sync. - When you first start the IDE and open your solution, do any NCrunch tool windows that are automatically shown on the screen have the correc…

  14. There is no way to ignore categories in the engine mode

    This is absolutely possible. Go to NCrunch->Set Engine Mode->Customise Engine Modes Then choose the engine mode you want to ignore categories in. On the bottom pane, under 'Settings to be overidden by this engine mode', go to Filters->Tests to execute automatically. Click the pencil. …

  15. Tests to execute on this machine when DoesNotHaveCategory still runs these test on the machine

The software of this forum is ancient and the image uploads were taken offline for security reasons. We get smashed by spammers h…

  16. Playwright not working

    Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. Playwright isn't supported by NCrunch. As Albert has stated, it's big, it's heavy and relies on a lot of complex infrastructure to manage the test process itself. The exception you're receiving is caused by NCrunch's workspacing. Basically, Playwright is tryi…

  17. Rider freezes UI very often when combined with NCrunch

    Could you check the logs under Rider to see if it reports a reason for the hanging? Usually when the UI is unresponsive, it takes a full thread dump. You can find these by going through Help-Diagnostic Tools-Show Log in Explorer.

  18. NCrunch Tool Window UI in VS2026 invalid on 4K monitor

    Thanks for confirming this. In VS, under Tools->Options->All Settings->Environment->Visual Experience, you'll see an option called 'Optimize rendering for screens with different pixel densities'. If you disable this setting and restart the IDE, does this resolve the problem?

  19. NCrunch Tool Window UI in VS2026 invalid on 4K monitor

    Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. Can you confirm what your DPI settings are? Also your IDE version? Do you have multiple screens?

  20. NUnit failed to discover the tests in this assembly

    Thanks for sending through the logs. The logs confirm that NUnit is eating the inner exception details, which is unfortunate as it means they won't be accessible through any logging mechanism that I'm familiar with. I wonder if we can try to force the exception to occur earlier, outside of NUn…
