NCrunch: Automated Parallelized Testing Tool

Automated parallelized testing tool for .NET developers, providing real-time feedback in Visual Studio on test status, execution times and code coverage.

What is NCrunch?

NCrunch is a Visual Studio extension that enables automated parallelized testing for .NET developers. It runs automated tests in the background and displays real-time feedback directly in the Visual Studio code editor about test status, execution times, and code coverage.

Some key features of NCrunch include:

  • Background test execution - Tests run automatically in the background without needing to manually run them.
  • Real-time feedback - Visual indicators in the code editor show you precisely which lines are covered by tests, which tests are passing/failing, and execution times.
  • Parallel test execution - Tests are parallelized across all available cores on your machine for faster feedback.
  • Automatic code coverage - NCrunch automatically calculates line, branch and part coverage and highlights any gaps in your test suite.
  • Debugging support - Easily debug failing tests without having to manually reproduced failures.

NCrunch helps developers receive continuous feedback to enable high quality, well-tested code. It’s useful for teams practicing TDD/BDD to stay in the feedback loop. Many .NET shops have adopted NCrunch for improved developer productivity and code quality.
