This is essentially a request to revisit this past rejected feature request: https://forum.ncrunch.ne...ategories-of-tests.aspx

We also have various groups of tests requiring manual configuration or access to specific resources (credentials, an IP, a specific device being on) that should not be run unless specifically enabled.

We also do not find the current engine modes to be a good solution, because if you want to run all tests then these tests will attempt to run and show as failed, and the rest of the time they will show up as unexecuted, etc. We just want them not to show up at all in the NCrunch UI, (or possibly to show up as ignored).

We currently use the Framework-specific ignore attribute (MSpec for most of our tests), but for whatever reason most testing frameworks make their ignore attribute uninheritable, so if you have, say, 15 tests for a resource you have to use 15 ignore attributes and comment/uncomment them all when you want to run the tests instead of having a single base class with an ignore attribute.

Overall NCrunch is a great product and we get a lot of use out of it, so thanks for all of your hard work.
