  1. Doubleclicking a failing test should jump to the failing line

    If I doubleclick a test in the tests window the test, the file containing the test is opened in the IDE and the cursor jumps to the beginning of the test (Feature: Go to selected test").

    It would be nice to have a "Go to selected test at failing line" feature that can be accessed via right click a failing test and even being able to set this as default action for double click.

  2. Display test output in text window (on button click)

    We use extensive logging information to analyze test failures.

    Currently the test output is only displayed in a split window of the tests window. This makes reading and analyzing long test outputs (especially with long lines) rather difficult.

    Therefore it would be nice to be able to display the test output with one button click in a separate (temporary) text window (similar to the Visual Studio test runner).

  3. Stand-alone UI

    I love NCrunch. I don't love Visual Studio. Working in VS is like running a big, fat, slow-turning oil tanker and it has started to make me more and more annoyed as time goes by. I have found myself working more and more with command line and VSCode.

    So, I would like to be able to use NCrunch in that context. A plug-in for VSCode would be nice, but maybe another solution would be to have a completely stand-alone UI for NCrunch, so it can be run separately, but with about the same feature set as included in VS.

  4. Rerun flaky test

    I'm using NCrunch for more than 2 years.
    IMHO it's must-have extension.
    When I come to new company that do not use NCrunch I need to fix/stabilize some test to run with NCruch engine.
    But still I stay with few flaky test.
    I need to rerun them few times to filter trully failing test.

    It would be nice introduce option for my case with flanky test.
    It could be rerun count before test is treated as failed
    Other option to introduce 3rd test state: flanky.

  5. Make the columns resizable without reducing the width of the next colum.

    Currently, if you want to make the Name column larger and drag the column separator, it reduces the width of the Status column. I'd rather have the width of the other columns unchanged (with a scrollbar to see the columns that are now outside the window).

    In order to reduce the size of the column, simply drag the right column separator to the left.

  6. ARM support

    Please compile / release for ARM as well as x86/x64.
    I am looking to run the NCrunch Grid on machines which use ARM chips and noticed there are only x86/x64 builds.

  7. Build on line "commit" insead of each character typed

    I would like the ability to be able to set NCrunch to only build my solution and run my tests after a new line of code is entered or an existing line of code has been edited.
    I find the feedback I get from VS more than enough while writing my line of code and would much rather have NCrunch working on giving me feedback on my solution up to the point where I added/edited the last complete line of code while typing the next.
    This would allow me to run many more test (as NCrunch has the time between…

  8. Option to run all test in current .cs file

    I would be nice if I could tell NCrunch to run all tests in the current file.

    Often related tests are implemented in the same .cs file. Some of the projects I work on are too large to leave ncrunch running all the time, so an option to just run all tests in a certain file would be really helpful.

  9. Improve hover-over hints on tests indicators/icons in 'NCrunch Tests' window

    Oh boy, we still have absolutely no idea what do some icons mean. Really.

    All these alerts icons on the test/assembly row, then green or red clocks, then green question marks. That IS so much puzzling. Seems we lived in VS space too much, at least it was simple - not run, run and pass/failed :)

    Please add hints on hover-over providing an explanation and suggestion on what is going on with the current test or whole test set.

  10. Mark tests using TestCaseSource as failed if an error in the method providing the TestCaseData fails

    Currently an NUnit test that uses a TestCaseSource attribute to provide the data will not show up at all if the method providing the TestCaseSource data has an exception.

    I often end up resorting to Resharper to run the offending test to find out what is going on.

    It would be nice if the tests that are failing because their TestCaseSource is not running can show up as failed tests the same way that they do in Resharper.

  11. Allow navigation to test in test window

    From the test status gutter or test name, I would like to be able to navigate to the test (right click or hotkey) in the test status window so that I can quickly ignore/unignore all tests in a test class easily.

  12. Add support for bUnit (Blazor Testing Library) Razor tests

    Would be nice to run razor based unit tests so that I can use ncrunch while testing my Blazor applications. The link below is a report of what happens when I attempt this currently. I would be happy to help in any way that I can if this feature is picked up. Thanks again for the wonderful testing tool

  13. Allow sorting of tests in the test window by code order

    Please add an option to allow sorting by natural code order in the test window. So the tests appear in the same order in the test window as they do in the source code file.

    Tests are typically written in roughly increasing order of complexity and dependency - in general, I would almost always want to fix a test that appears first in a source file before those that appear after it.

    Tests are also often (very) loosely grouped together by position in the file - related tests will be next to each other, and it would be helpful to…

  14. Treat unit and system tests differently

    I've worked in a number of scenarios where we had a subset of tests which would be better classed as "system tests". I.e. they covered a large amount of system functionality and took a considerably amount of time to run (sometimes minutes). Running these as conventional unit tests under Ncrunch, triggered by every editor change is overkill but OTOH the Ncrunch UI is really nice and its ability to automatically run things is very helpful. It would be useful if these tests could be treated in a different way to normal units tests, e.g. only run on a scheduled basis…

  15. An option to automatically pin *modified* tests

    Most of the time, I only want to automatically run tests that I'm working on.

    So I use engine mode "Run pinned tests automatically, others manually". And manually pin tests I'm working on.

    Would be nice if NCrunch could automatically pin modified tests (detect changes of test methods and test classes), and automatically pin modified tests.

    I know we already have an option "Automatically pin newly discovered tests". Would be nice if there was another option "Automatically pin modified tests".

  16. Add PriorityAttribute: This can Improve parallel execution dramatically

    The tests are ordered for execution depending on automatic generated priorities.

    Execution of an isolated test (e.g. needing exclusively the "Task Runner" Resource) causes that no new tests are put into the Pipeline (local and grid node) until this test is started.

    If I could set the PriorityAttribute to all isolated tests, I could run them all together at the end rather then often interrupting the Pipeline that contains many long running tests.

  17. Filter to show running tests.

    Hi, I'd like to have a new filter option along side the "show passing/failing/unexecuted/ignored tests" buttons which would allow me to "show running tests". My use case would be to have show enabled for failing, unexecuted, and running tests -- so I can more clearly see what NCrunch is up to at any given moment.

  19. Color the console output

    I really like the idea of separation of console outputs by test. But, the problem is, that with more logs the output becomes cluttered. There is an excellent plugin for Visual Studio called VSColorOuput that allows to specify regular expressions to color the console output in the output window.

    Would you consider:
    1. Add similar coloring preferences to console output
    or
    2. Output console to the output window, as requested in another feature request?

  20. Shortened name should just be the test name when viewing with Tree Structure set to test

    Currently, when I want to view tests in flat list, I set the tree structure to "Test" but all the following columns display the same values

    Name, Shortened Name and Full Test Name !

    It would be helpful if the Shortened Name just displayed the test name rather than the full namespace.
