Title:
nunit-agent hangs after tests complete
Status in NUnit V2 Test Framework:
In Progress
Bug description:
If a test fixture is being run in a different process (using nunit-
agent), every now and then nunit-console will print out the results of
the tests and exit, but the nunit-agent process will hang around
indefinitely.
I believe the issue is with .NET Remoting, specifically the
TestAgent/RemoteTestAgent.Stop operations. Stop is marked as a one-
way call, which tells the .NET Framework that the call can be
completed asynchronously. However, this also means that when nunit-
console exits immediately after calling Stop, the message may never
actually be sent to the nunit-agent.
Recommend removing the OneWay attribute so that the call is completed
synchronously and thereby guaranteed to be delivered.
