Version 3.3 is faster and better than ever!
With your help, we have created a faster product with a few really killer features. We love all of the feedback that we receive from our customers and we encourage you to send us even more.
Over the last few months we have been receiving emails from customers who had source files in the 1000’s or tens of thousands of lines of code (auto generated of course) — requesting us to improve the response time from our source code viewer. We have totally replaced the source code viewer. And the results are amazing!
“The new viewer is 5-20x faster at loading source code files, uses up to 80% less memory and allows you to select your source code,” notes Stephen Ward (another one of the lead devs). “We also moved the unvisited code marker to the right of the window to make it a more natural selection process as you are viewing your code.”
Another one of the really cool enhancements to NCover and NCover explorer is how we present ASP.Net code behind source. For anyone familiar with how ASP.Net works, if you do not create a compiled solution, ASP.Net compiles the source files on demand, creating non user friendly assembly names. Since we are all about “friendly”, we decided to change that for you!
We now process your existing and new coverage data to group all of the ASP.Net coverage data into one top level tree element called aspnet_autogen_assemblies. All of your Asp.Net source will be grouped nicely into one location, allowing you to analyze your code coverage even quicker.
But enough marketing hype, go get the new version and see for yourself!
