As of version 1.18.0, a client-supplied bootstrapper can be used to determine which external assembly files are scanned during startup.
Last time, I talked about how [FakeItEasy extension scanning had improved in version 1.13.0][betterscan]. While this change has dramatically improved startup times in many situations …
A few weeks ago, I wrote about the problems that FakeItEasy's
assembly scanning was causing while it was looking for user-defined extensions. To recap,
FakeItEasy was scanning all assemblies in the AppDomain and the
working directory, looking for types that implemented
IArgumentValueFormatter, IDummyDefinition, or
IFakeConfigurator. This process was quite slow …
Late last week at the Day Job, a colleague came to me with a problem. The web service he was trying to hit was throwing an error he'd never seen before:
HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server Error The requested page cannot be accessed because the related configuration data for …
I enjoy reading about how software is made, and I like unit testing frameworks. So, when I heard about Patrick Plioi's new project Fixie, I rushed to check it out.
In this case, "check it out" doesn't mean "clone the repo and dig around the source code". Nor does …
Hi again. At the Day Job, we've recently dropped Typemock Isolator and NMock2 as the mocking frameworks of choice in the products that I work on. We've jumped on the FakeItEasy bandwagon. So far, we're enjoying the change. FakeItEasy is powerful enough and the concepts and syntax fit the mind …
[Update on 2013-06-22: I should've mentioned this a while ago, but the issue and patch I submitted were accepted and built into ReportGenerator 1.7.3.0, so if you have anything newer, you should be good.]
Recently I was working on a project at the Day Job, using OpenCover …
Now that Google has announced that Python 2.7 is fully supported on Google App Engine, I figured I should get my act in gear and make convert LibraryHippo over. I'd had a few aborted attempts earlier, but this time things are going much better.
This is the gala awards show, where my chosen coverage tool is announced.
If you've come this far, you've probably already read the title, and it won't surprise you to learn that I've chosen OpenCover. It offered the best fit for my requirements - the only areas where I found it …

I tried NCover 3.4.18.6937.
NCover Complete is $479 plus $179 for a 1-year subscription (which gives free version updates). I thought this was a little steep. NCover Classic is $199/$99. I looked at NCover Complete, because that's the kind of trial version they …
OpenCover is developed by Shaun Wilde. He was a developer on (and is the only remaining maintainer of) PartCover. He's used what he learned working on PartCover to develop OpenCover, but OpenCover is a new implementation, not a port.
I tried OpenCover 1.0.514. Since I downloaded a couple …
