Feedback about failing test in case the mouse hovers the > character

Started by Ralf Koban on 6,069 views

Hi Remco,

If the mouse hovers the > character beside the test, and the test fails, it would be nice to get the failing message for the test.

This is probably a special situation as normally, if a test fails, and the mouse hovers the X, NCrunch shows the failing message as tooltip.
However, if the test is written as expression body, then there is no red X but only a red >.

In this case, if I left-click the >, I get the "Tests starting line ..." user control control which lists the failing test with a X.

It would be nice if e.g. I'll get a tooltip containing the exception message (if there is any) when I'll hover that X inside that user control.


Best regards,
Ralf
Hi Ralf,

This is actually defective behaviour, and I plan to address it soon.

The test entry point shouldn't be overriding the tooltip behaviour for exception messages (which are more important).

When implemented correctly, the test entry point should never mask an inline exception.
