  1. MSTest runsettings file appears to not load

    This isn't about feature voting, it's about repeating myself. I would think that a well document and recommend by Microsoft feature of MS Test would be supported by any test runner that wants to support MS Test, as far as I can tell yours is the only one that does not. I wouldn't think you need to …

  2. MSTest runsettings file appears to not load

    I would love to hope the feature request to the creator of the tool I've used for years now via his forums sufficient. I am not of fan of making my requests to companies multiple times, as I feel the best customer service to customers is to make it easy for them, and when they make requests to make …

  3. MSTest runsettings file appears to not load

    Yeah we cannot use environment variables because we run these tests in the VSTS Release Tasks where we are required to use this file and then apply overrides based on the environment the task is running in. Everything works in everything but NCrunch basically and we cannot make a change to our test…

  4. MSTest runsettings file appears to not load

    I have an MS Test project for .NET Core 1.1. It has a simple runsettings file like this: [code=xml]<RunSettings> <TestRunParameters> <Parameter name="foo" value="bar" /> </TestRunParameters> </RunSettings>[/code] These parameters are supposed to be injected at runtime into al…

  5. Can't get a required file into _ncrunchreferences

    Yeah I tried the Copy referenced assemblies to workspace setting before for the test project and it didn't work, so I tried again and this time I only turned it on for the project that the test project references and now it worked. This feels odd that it only worked when I turned it on for the non-t…

  6. Can't get a required file into _ncrunchreferences

    Well its not my code, but a private API written by another group in the company. The XML file is required to be in the same directory as the executing application and the DLL that requires it. This made me think that NCrunch is launching the unit tests from _ncrunchreferences and that the only fil…

  7. Can't get a required file into _ncrunchreferences

    I have a shared XML file that is linked into a class library project. That file property for "Copy to Output Directory" is set to copy always. Yet for some reason it never ends up in the _ncrunchreferences folder where apparently it needs to be as the exceptions when the test run are that it cannot …

  8. NCrunch "Additional files to include" can't see all files in directory

    No it is not my system, this is only happening in the dialog provided via NCrunch. Also when I paste in the full path to the file in the manual area it gives me the following error: [quote] Invalid Expression The specified expression is invalid. Expressions must be the relative path of an exis…

  9. NCrunch "Additional files to include" can't see all files in directory

    Greetings, I am using NCrunch for Visual Studio 2013 v2.23.0.2. When I try to tell NCrunch to include additional files it can't see all the files in a directory. [list=1] [*]Go to General Settings > [Specific Project] > General > Additional Files to Include [*]Open the popup dialog [*]Clic…

  10. Every time open solution NCrunch is disabled

    Yeah on the solutions having the issue the file was readonly. Thank you for pointing me to the file and it being read-only. I would think this could have been avoided if NCrunch would be simply detect this state and change to to be not a writable like ReSharper does for its settings file. Even vi…

  11. Every time open solution NCrunch is disabled

    For a while now on a large number of solutions that I enable NCrunch on, when I close visual studio and then open the solution again NCrunch is disabled. If anyone knows some common reasons that could cause this please let me know, as this is starting to become very annoying.

  12. Why does the Metric Window include Tests Projects?

    Two Questions: 1. Why does NCrunch shows the Test Projects within the Metrics window that shows the code coverage? 2. What benefit or purpose does it serve to include Test Projects or even show them in this window? To me it seems very odd as the Code Coverage is supposed to tell me what l…

  13. Run pre/post-build events doesn't resolve macros correctly

    I understand that if I add a file to the solution as a linked solution item it will be copied, however you shouldn't add DLL's as a solution item really. But that would be the best of all the options so far as it is at least portable. I am not asking you to add a feature that would allow NCrunch …

  14. Run pre/post-build events doesn't resolve macros correctly

    Hi Remco, I am fully aware of they additional files ot include feature of NCrunch however that removes the portability of the tests and it is duplicating "code" that shouldn't be duplicated. Not all developers use NCrunch that I share code with, so I don't check in any NCrunch settings, I expect…

  15. Run pre/post-build events doesn't resolve macros correctly

    Greetings, When you enable pre/post build events with NCrunch and you are using xcopy with build in macro's it should resolve it as if it was running within the solution and project path, not from within wherever it decides to copy files to spacfe. So if you have a macro like so: xcopy /Y "…

  16. NCrunch 1.41b remains Running after closing Visual Studio 2012

    Well since posted this issue and I have been monitoring more the issue diligently, I can't reproduce it. Which is odd because it was happening fairly frequently which is what prompted me to post. The next time I it happens I will attach a debugger to and see what is holding it up, if it appears to …

  17. NCrunch 1.41b remains Running after closing Visual Studio 2012

    I would suspect NCrunch for 2012 since its still beta, because if open a solution that doesn't have NCrunch enabled VS2012 closes fine and no NCrunch instances where opened and when it does happen I have let it sit for 30 minutes and they stayed open in Task Manager. So my main solution I am wor…

  18. NCrunch 1.41b remains Running after closing Visual Studio 2012

    Using RTM Visual Studio 2012 with NCrunch 1.41b on Windows Server 2008 R2 workstation. When I close Visual Studio 2012 by the usual means the UI goes away, but NCrunch remains open with at least one but sometimes as many as 4 instances running. These are preventing the devenv.exe from fulling clo…

  19. Build Errors Needs Details and New Window

    I didn't mention it in the original post, but I select Rebuild selected components from the NCrunch Tests window that it does take me to when I double click the NCrunch status icon it builds fine. So I would have to wait until it happens again to be able to open the Processing Queue window to look …

  20. Build Errors Needs Details and New Window

    When a project fails to build and you click on the NCrunch circle in the status bar it takes you to the NCrunch Tests window and shows regular projects with a Bx icon. You can select them but there is no messages as to what the build error(s) where. As I can build the solution just fine but NCrunc…
