I was having many problems getting ncrunch to work on a netcoreapp3.1 unit test project. I was receiving the error:
Quote:An error occurred while analysing this project after it was built: NCrunch encountered an unexpected error occurred while building an environment to analyse an assembly: nCrunch.TaskRunner.Ipc.IpcConnectionClosedException: The connection has been closed

I turned on

Log Verbosity: detailed
and discovered by looking in the processing queue for my busted tests that the commandline ncrunch was running. I ran the command myself and received this error

Error:
An assembly specified in the application dependencies manifest (nCrunch.TaskRunner.DotNetCore.20.x64.deps.json) was not found:
package: 'FluentAssertions', version: '5.10.3'
path: 'lib/netcoreapp2.1/FluentAssertions.dll'
The only way I could figure out how to fix this was to turn on "Copy Referenced Assemblies to Workspace" for the test project. Is there a better way? These tests work fine running directly out of visual studio.
