NCover 3.4.12: Memory Improvements and Bugfixes
We just released NCover 3.4.12. It's a regular bugfix release but also includes an exciting reduction to NCover's memory usage when running applications that spawn lots of subprocesses. You can read all about the release in the release notes.
NCover 3.4.10: NCover Explorer Fixes
We've been working hard to resolve some long-standing issues in NCover Explorer, and figured it would be more fun if we go ahead and share them with you. The fixes in NCover 3.4.10 include:
- Automatic scrolling in the output window has been restored, including a fix for a previous memory issue that occurred when large amounts of output where displayed.
- The "Loading Coverage Data" dialog should now always disappear after coverage is loaded. There were a few edge cases where it would stick around previously.
- The Save Project and Save Project As... menu items now always force a save of the project file, rather than checking for changes.
There are a few other issues that were resolved that you can read about in the release notes.
NCover 3.4.8: NUnit and IIS Improvements
We just rolled out NCover 3.4.8. This release includes a few small fixes, but the primary improvements are a fix that should get rid of "No data was collected" errors that several users have experienced when running NCover with NUnit and an issue where services weren't automatically stopped when a test application was run alongside of it.
Thanks to everyone who reported these issues. We are very grateful to have such amazing users.
NCover 3.4.6: Bug Fixes
If you're using an NCover Classic license, you'll want to get this version of NCover. There was a bug in v3.4.4 that prevented NCover Explorer from loading coverage files after an execution if a Classic license was being used.
The other fixes are in the release notes.
NCover 3.4.4: Updates and Improvements
There's a new version of NCover available! We've made several tweaks and fixes in thie release, but two are pretty important:
- NCover 3.4 now requires significantly less memory.
- NCover.Console arguments that aren't supported by the installed license are now ignored, so that configurations for NCover Complete can be run on systems using a Classic license.
Full details are in the release notes.

Version 3.4 in a little more than 48 hours
I just got tagged on IM by our savvy team of rockstar devs with big news. Monday morning, NCover 3.4 hits the interwebs.
Some of you signed up for the BETA and gave us great feedback. Others just sat waiting for the big day. Either way, we're happy you're hanging around.
So, enjoy your weekend, because Monday morning, test coverage goes to a whole new level.
Wait and see.
We've Been Hard at Work.... Reinventing.
Our goal is to help you test your entire application life cycle (unit tests not required) without 14 different, complex steps.
Here's a quick update from the front lines of the NCover War on untested code. We haven't been napping. We have been hard at work integrating with the rest of the .NET tool landscape.
Once you guys realized that you didn't need to have unit tests to run test coverage, you did a great job of wiring NCover into your existing architecture. You found new ways to get more insight from HP's Quick Test Pro and AutomatedQA's TestComplete.
It seems that once we opened the testing floodgates, you wanted to start testing everything. That's awesome. A lot of our best ideas came from ideas from you guys - the "what if I could" emails.
That pushed us to really focus on the user experience. We expect that experience to get even better in the coming builds. Fast, easy, credible results.
So here's the deal. We are SOON beginning the process of introducing Visual Studio plugins into the .NET ecosystem.
For years, you could use other plugins to integrate your NCover usage with your development environment (and it worked). Now, we are building our own plug-ins to provide you a better experience. It's smooth. It's seamless. It's easy to use.
Now we need your feedback. So for the first time, we are actively asking you to go sign up for early access to our BETA.
We want to hear what you have to say. We reinvented code coverage 6+ years ago for the .NET community , and we need your help right now to reinvent again...
