NCoverGui

Peter Waldschmidt has recently released a code coverage app (NCover) using the .NET profiling APIs.  This is great!  Currently it's a command line app, and I generally favor Windows applications since I'm not in the command prompt that often and typing in full paths makes me itch. 

Once again .NET has come to the rescue.  I whipped this up in no time and it serves my needs:

  • Remembers NCover path, as well as last profiled app and assemblies between sessions.
  • Automatically shows report after running.

I plan on adding "projects" to save configurations when I get more time.

Very cool! Thanks for putting this together. I really need to upgrade the NCover user experience when I get some time.

If you are interested in NCover, please also take a look at NCoverViewer. It takes the output and integrates it with Visual Studio as a plug in.

Peter: No problem. Thanks for the app!

Pete: I'd love to, but Google doesn't provide any results for "NCoverViewer". Can you provide a link?

There is a small problem with NCoverGui: you always add the /a option, while you should not add it when the user doesn't provide any assembly.
From NCover's FAQ :"If you do not specify the /a argument, NCover will attempt to analyze every loaded assembly that has debug information available."

I tried to use NCoverGui with csUnit but it fails to execute.
Follows the command line I use:
d:\apps\ncover\ncover.console /c "D:\APPS\csunit.org\csUnit 1.9.4\csunitcmd.exe" " /recipe:..\..\..\Scheduler.recipe" /a "SchedulerMain" /w "D:\Proyectos de Visual Studio\_Scheduler\SchedulerMain\bin\Debug"

Note the directories with whitespaces and also note the whitespace before /recipe argument.
I downloaded the source files of NCoverGui so had I fix it, I could send you the patch. Regretably, the source doesn't correspond to the last binary version.
