1. Support for NCrunch on Windows ARM

   Windows and VisualStudio is now officially supported by Microsoft https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/d/windows-dev-kit-2023/94k0p67w7581

   It would be really useful to test if our code also runs correcly on ARM

   planned  ·  AdminRemco Mulder (NCrunch Developer, NCrunch Website) responded

   As another version of .NET, we do need to support this.

   
   

   However, with v4.8.1, MS made the decision to only allow this framework (and its associated SDK) to be installable on machines running very recent versions of Windows.  This introduces a huge new constraint on our own development environment (which is very complex).  To handle this, we need to buy and configure new servers and do a lot of extra work.

   
   

   At the moment we're hoping we'll have the chance to build v4.8.1 task runners early in the new year.

3. Go to failure point (or to test in NCrunch Tests) from coverage context menu

   When the coverage markers show a red dot, it has always baffled me that there's no obvious way to get from there to the point of failure. Clicking on the dot shows all the tests that go through it, with a cross or tick showing success or failure, but what I've always wanted to do was to be able to double click on a red X and be taken directly to the line on which the failure occurred. (Or failing that, at least to be taken to the NCrunch Tests panel, with the relevant test highlighted.)

   Perhaps there's some shortcut I'm missing, but as it stands, although it's really easy to see that something failed, it's then unnecessarily hard work to be able to see the details of the failure.

4. Treat project references as binary references when not part of solution

   Would like to request an option to treat project references as binary references if they are no part of the current solution or if they have the 'Ignore this project completely' option enabled.

   The reason for this is I work on a large codebase (thousands of projects and deep dependency tree) and our build environment requires that we use ProjectReference for our references (with some projects having dozens of references).

   We do have a custom tool that copies the project's dependencies (the corresponding binaries for all the project references) from our build shares. We then pass the "/p:BuildProjectReferences=false" option to msbuild so it does not actually build all those project references.

   However when I try to use NCrunch on such a project I get a "Missing or ignored project reference" warning. The build then fails because the code from that project reference is missing, i.e. I get an error like this:

   The type or namespace name 'MissingType' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

5. Be able to bind hotkeys to "Show .." icons in 'NCrunch Tests'

   Feature: Be able to bind shortcut keys to the toolbar button "Show passing tests" (and thus probably also "Show failing tests", "Show unexecuted tests" and "Show ignored tests").

   Scenario: I am looking for a specific test so I browse through tests and dbl click/investigate it in the hierarchical view. When I found test I want to work with I pin it via kbd shortcut (since I am in the editor after I just dbl clicked it) and now I want to hide all passing tests in 'NCrunch Tests' window to only show my pinned one.

   Current behavior: I must use the mouse to find the toolbar button "Show passing tests", click it, then get back to editor.

   Desired behavior: While still in the editor (and hands on keyboard) with test I just pinned, I want to toggle the toolbar button "Show passing tests" via a keyboard shortcut.

6. Set a baseline in a project with many failing tests

   Here's a new idea: I'd like to be able to set a "failure baseline" in a project with a lot of failing tests.

   Granted, such a project shouldn't exist in the first place! But I'm sure many of us have had the experience of getting to a new workplace where nobody's run the unit tests for a while, and suddenly the new guy runs them and there are hundreds failing.

   Of course, the ideal thing would be to stop everything and fix them all. But try explaining to management why we can't fix bugs or write new features for a few weeks.

   Thus, my proposal:

   I fire up NCrunch, do a complete test run, and find out that 637 tests are failing. Now I can tell NCrunch to save that as a baseline. NCrunch will store the details on each of those 637 failing tests. Then when I modify code, and NCrunch reruns tests, it'll give me baseline-compared results (perhaps in a new window, separate from the normal test result window) telling me about (1) any new failing tests, and (2) any failing tests in that baseline that now pass.

   Currently, if I write code that makes a failing test to pass but also makes a formerly passing test fail, I'll just see the same number, 637. With this new feature, I'd see a clear indicator that compared to the baseline, I have 1 more failing test and 1 more passing test, and I can see exactly what those tests are.

   One question is how this would work with branches. I assume NCrunch isn't really branch-aware, but simply focuses on the current state of the code. The baseline should probably be a file saved in the project, such as an XML or JSON file. Then on a different branch I can keep the same file or overwrite it with a different baseline file if I so choose.

7. [Convenience] Add text filter for metrics view to quickly find a project

   Background:
   I got a solution with 117 projects. Oftentimes, I will sketch the implementation of a new subsystem and only partially test-cover it while doing the sketch. Once I'm satisfied with the shape and usage, I switch over to completely test-covering it. When doing this, it's helpful to look at the metrics view NCrunch provides.

   However, because of the number of projects, it's a bit tedious to navigate to the right project, open the right namespace etc.

   If there was a textbox on top which would represent a filter on project-names and namespaces that would automatically filter the list on keypress (simple matching: if a project-name or namespace contains the text, display it), that would make such flows faster.

   Actually In Az Devops, we all use others products, mostly free for ours CI/CD pipelines.

   (for (1) tests result export for quality gates, (2) "test coverage" threshold and (3) "performance" flags (why not a new product with performance regression test on is(even in main product)

   even the horrible dotcover has a free tasks. I would like to use NCrunch out-of-the box there, simple drag and drop

10. Add a "sync with active document" button to the NCrunch Tests window

    When I am inside the source code of a Test, I'd like to have a button in the NCrunch test window that automatically focuses, inside the NCrunch test window itself, the entry corresponding to the test I am editing.

    I already can do a similar thing with Visual Studio's Solution Explorer: if I am editing a source code file, I can press the "sync with active document" button in the toolbar of the solution explorer and get the source code I am editing highlighted in the solution explorer treeview, without having to browse the whole tree by myself.

    I would expect NCrunch to have this identical feature.

11. Make the "Show Tests Covering this line" popup a dockable window.

    The behaviour I am suggesting is the same of the native show "symbol references" visual studio popup window. (I am referring to that popup that opens when you click on the "<n> references" tag visual studio shows on top of method and properties declarations)

    it is a pop up, but in its top-right corner there is a icon that, when clicked, turns it in a docked tab in the editor that does not go away.

    the current approach (a simple popup window that goes away as soon as you start interacting with the editor) makes this list of very little use: if you want to check the source code of all the tests covering such line, you have every time to go back to such line (if you remember where it was), reopen the popup and remember which was in the list the last test you checked.

12. NCrunch Hot Spots Cleaner Window

    This feature is amazing, but find my self only on the top 5-10 most resource prone functions... would like to have a filter somehow to only show top 10% or with some kind of threshold.
    My case: A secondary screen dedicated to Ncrunch split between NC metrics/hot spots/tests (and sometime visual studio tasks/error list) can be kind of busy (really)

    I think think everyone could benefit

13. NCrunch Metrics Cleaner - Filter Button to not show projects with 100% Coverage.

    NCrunch Metrics Cleaner - Filter Button to not show projects with 100% Coverage, similar to the unit tests, to hide passed tests...

    Maybe in settings: add threshold for filter for team current objectifs: my usecase: for legacy project with 20% coverage we had millestone to increas to 50% and then 80* now we are in average 95%...

    well a second monitor split between metrics, unit tests and hot spots can be quite busy,

14. Add support for custom MSTest V2 "custom" TestClass and TestMethod Attributes

    MSTest suports overriding certain behavior in the TestClass and TestMethod attributes using inheritance.
    This blogpost describes the pattern well: https://www.meziantou.net/mstest-v2-customize-test-execution.htm

    Ncrunch currently does not discover tests with custom attributes as tests, so this customization is not available using NCrunch

16. Show tests in the order they are run if Order attribute is used

    If you use NUnit's Order attribute, you can specify an exact order (dependencies) for the tests to run, which also works with NCrunch:

    https://docs.nunit.org/articles/nunit/writing-tests/attributes/order.html

    In the NCrunch window, the tests are however always sorted alphabetically, which makes not much sense, given they are run in a different order. They are just hard to find then e.g.
    It would be nice if you could order them non-alphabetically by order instead.

17. Add suppport for triggering endless churn mode from console

    Its common that the develop machine is turned of during the night so the endless churn mode doesn't get used as much as it should. We have like many others a dedicated build server and we would love to have the possibility to trigger a nightly build that churns the tests in the solution for a fixed period of time (a few hours or so) so we can gather all failing tests in the morning and make an attempt to fix these tests.

20. Creat A Simple API To Control NCrunch Execution and get Responses From It

    A simple api like, start TEST blah blah ... and get the response whether success or failure, and the console output that is generated , just like in the NCrunch Tests window.

    Also API to start, stop , restart NCrunch , and check current status.

    I'd like to be able to build a simple tool so I can control test execution. :-)

    Maybe NCrunch already has an object model we can tap into??
