  1. Custom ExpectedExceptionBaseAttribute not treated like ExpectedExceptionAttribute

    Hi Doug, I'm sorry to hear that! I wish you all the best.

  2. Vs2019: Disable Alt+U shortcut somehow?

    Right now, the Alt+U hook is built in and 'normal' behaviour is not available in any form. We'd like to avoid adding a special configuration setting to control it (since we have too many already), and we're examining options here. Right now there's still the possibility that MS may introduce a con…

  3. Custom ExpectedExceptionBaseAttribute not treated like ExpectedExceptionAttribute

    Hi Doug, Thanks for sharing this issue. NCrunch's support for MSTest is provided using an emulator rather than integrating direct with the toolset itself (this is done for a range of reasons, mostly because MSTest has generally been horrible to integrate with over the years). The problem wi…

  4. Sometimes near Empty Autos and Locals Window when debugging a Test with NCrunch

    I don't expect this will change anything around the impact detection, or anything that may be related to async/await. The problem here was triggered by the following statement: using Person = FamilyCalendar.Web.Models.Person; This statement causes a small change in the way namespaces are decl…

  7. Debugger visualizers not working anymore after update to 3.22.1

    Hi, sorry the new CIL based system is still a work in progress. I'd like to give an ETA, but the truth is that with the platform going the way it has been, we're not really in charge of our own schedule at the moment. I can promise you that we're working on it as a matter of priority.

  8. Need to manually open/close Grid Node configuration on remote server almost daily

    [quote=devdept;13500] Do you mean that the next time I get into this problem, instead of doing Start/Programs/NCrunch Grid Node Configuration and close it, I need to run NCrunch.GridNode.Console.exe console program from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Remco Software\NCrunch Grid Node Server" folder? [/quo…

  9. Need to manually open/close Grid Node configuration on remote server almost daily

    Hi Alberto, The only thing I can think that the grid node configuration tool might be doing here is restarting the grid node service. So probably restarting the service yourself would have the same effect. Do you experience the same thing if you run the grid node using NCrunch.GridNode.Consol…

  10. NUnit fixture with non-matching constraint on fixture class is silently ignored

    Unfortunately this is all behind the NUnit abstraction. We try to avoid digging into this logic because when we do, it inhibits our ability to treat NUnit as a service that provides us with test identifiers and allows us to run them generically.

  11. Upgraded test projects to 4.7.2 - 0 tests discovered

    Nice work! The more recent versions of VS tend to go a bit crazy with binding redirections. I've seen them appear in project templates and as a result of tooling changes. They are not always required. My best guess here is that you may have had a redirection that was messing with the test fram…

  12. NCrunch environment variable not set when evaluating PackageReferences

    Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. The problem here is that the PackageReferences are resolved during the package resolution step, which is performed and controlled by VS, where NCrunch has no chance to introduce alternative logic. The package restore step creates the project.assets.json file …

  13. Upgraded test projects to 4.7.2 - 0 tests discovered

    From here, the best approach is to transfer things over to your sample project, one step at a time. For example, start by just copy/pasting your entire list of Nuget package references into the test project, then see if it still works. If not, we know it's something in the Nuget packages .. if i…

  14. Underscore in string creates accelerator in the code editor NCrunch tooltip text

    Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. I think this may be a localisation issue of some kind. Are you able to let me know which culture/language code you have active inside your IDE?

  15. "Auto-Detect NuGet Build Dependencies" fails when repositoryPath is overridden in nuget.config

    [quote=LucasT;13472]Ok, thanks. I've used the "Additional files to include" setting but it's not very convenient for some packages. [/quote] Understood. Adding packages using this method used to be the primary (and only) way for NCrunch to work with them. It was like this for several years bef…

  16. "Auto-Detect NuGet Build Dependencies" fails when repositoryPath is overridden in nuget.config

    Thanks for sharing this problem. We have a bad pattern of running up against platform limitations when working in this particular area, so it's hard to say for certain right now whether it's possible for us to come up with a feasible fix for this. I've noted this down to be looked at in more det…

  17. Sometimes near Empty Autos and Locals Window when debugging a Test with NCrunch

    Hi Albert, Thanks for sharing this problem. This is caused by a known issue in NCrunch's handling of PDB metadata. Recently, something has changed inside the platform that has made this problem more serious. Unfortunately, it's not so easy to fix. NCrunch's PDB metadata is built on an agi…

  18. Issues building project, possibly related to SRP

    We have actually included a change in the latest release to allow you to change the directory used by NCrunch for its build hosts. If you set your 'Workspace base path' configuration setting to somewhere else (that is allowed under SRP), you hopefully won't have this problem again.

  19. Support for VS 2019?

    [quote=ovation22;13448]I updated to VS 2019 16.0.3 and Risk/Progress bar is now just a blank box. I updated NCunch, but no dice. I uninstalled NCrunch, rebooted, reinstalled, no dice. I submitted a Bug Report but wanted to make myself available here as well in case I can provide more info. [/quot…

  20. Understanding Scale needs for Distributed Processing

    Hi Doug, Thanks for posting! The documentation in this area gives some limited information you might find useful around [url=https://www.ncrunch.net/documentation/guides_distributed-processing]grid performance[/url]. Generally, however, like most things in the software world, the answer is 'it …
