  1. ncrunch and parallels desktop not working since version 3.16

    Hi, thanks for posting. I'm sorry you are having this issue. I tried to reproduce this issue. I'm also using Parallels 13 and Windows 10 with the latest version VS 2017 and NCrunch. I've stored a new test project under the mapped folder on my Mac. This worked without any issues. Would you …

  2. NCrunch.exe LogVerbosity Low does not include test error details

    Sorry for coming back so late to this issue. Again thanks for reporting this in such great detail. I've looked at reproducing this. Without powershell and executing the console tool directly with LogVerbosity set to Low I do see failed tests being logged with the exception message attached. Could…

  3. Slow cursor in certain windows

    Hi :) Good to hear that everything is backup and working! Michael

  4. Slow cursor in certain windows

    Hi Nils, Good to hear that there is no more flickering/slow cursor! This build doesn't have any debug code in it. It's a normal release build other than it's not public on the main site. I don't see that fix itself could affect performance in a negative way. What is going slower? The load…

  5. Slow cursor in certain windows

    Hi, With the information you provided I've seen some mouse flickering on a dev machine. The cursor itself wasn't slow. I've fixed the flickering in a dev build. Would you mind testing that build to check if it solves your issue? [url=https://s3.amazonaws.com/downloads.ncrunch.net/NCrunch_Conso…

  6. NCrunch Gid Node Configuration Utility should be signed

    I'm sorry, that ended up on the release notes when it wasn't finished yet. It's definitely still on the list!

  7. Slow cursor in certain windows

    Hi thanks for posting! Would it be possible for you to make a screencap/recording of this? (https://getsharex.com/ is a program that can do quick screengrabs into gif's) You can send this via our contact form. (https://www.ncrunch.net/Support/Contact). Could you also if this happens submit a …

  8. NCrunch.exe LogVerbosity Low does not include test error details

    Hi thanks for reporting this! I'll look into this.

  9. Seeing full test output for multi-line formatted failure messages

    Hi! Thanks for reporting this. The NCrunch popups where overhauled in version 3.15. We agree there is some room for improvement in how multi-line exceptions are shown. We will look into this. We should use more of the available screen real estate for the message. Pinning a test should selected…

  10. Won't work with Only Visual Studio Build Tools installed on Grid Node

    No worries Albert :) Thanks for letting us know!

  11. Won't work with Only Visual Studio Build Tools installed on Grid Node

    Hi, I've tried to reproduce this issue. I haven't been able to break this on a VM (using the buildtools, with and without VS installed/uninstalled). It looks like your machine is in a state where the com code we use to find the Visual Studio installation is broken. I'm guessing you've already don…

  12. NCrunch incorrectly reporting tests as having the same name

    For now we will not fix the original issue. Fixing it would mean deviating from how other test runners display the test name and we haven't thought of a better way to display the tests without introducing duplicate test names. For the time being we will show the test name as it is reported by nunit …

  13. NCrunch incorrectly reporting tests as having the same name

    Hi, We've had a look at this. This was introduced in version 3.17.0.2 to improve the rendering of NUnit tests that have a TestCase attribute that contains escape characters or unicode. NUnit adds slashes to the testname that it reports back. We've tried improving on that rendering, but since it c…

  14. NCrunchCacheStoragePath error

    Hi, We had a closer look at this. We've found an issue with this and we will fix this. As a work around specifying the setting via the command line should work. Thanks for bringing this to our attention!

  15. NCrunchCacheStoragePath error

    Thanks for coming back so quickly. Would you mind trying to set the configuration from the CLI or the configuration file that is supplied to the console tool? I would like to make sure that that solves the problem. In version 3.15 we added a check at the start of the console tool that checks if …

  16. NCrunchCacheStoragePath error

    Since version 3.15 the NCrunchCacheStoragePath option needs to be set. You can do this from the CLI parameters or in the referenced configuration. This option always should be set when using the console tool under a CI system for the console tool to function properly between different runs.

  17. NCrunch console tool kills msbuild process

    If you use the console tool and run it twice simultaneously both instances will compete for resources. If you install the grid node on the build server that will run as a service. The console tool will contact the grid node and ask it to build/run the tasks. The grid node will share its capacity bet…

  18. NCrunch console tool kills msbuild process

    Probably the easiest way to handle that is to install a gridnode on the build server (You can use your normal license), then configure the console runner to use the gridnode and not run any tests itself. You can add this to the configuration for the console tool: <DisabledNodes> <Value…

  19. NCrunch console tool kills msbuild process

    Great to hear! Glad we could help.

  20. NCrunch console tool kills msbuild process

    Could you have a look at the log of the run? In the first section of that log we dump all the settings the console tools is using for this run. We are curious about the AllowParallelTestExecution setting. Maybe it's getting overwritten somewhere.
