[Bug 602761] Re: nunit-agent hangs after tests complete

 

Hey, I have the same problem only in a more controlled environment. In
the AutoTest.Net project we are hosting NUnit inside our own runner.
Right now inside our runner we are issuing a GetCurrentProcess().Kill()
to be able to shut down our process. If I remove this line I get the
hang issue and our runner never exits. It happens consequently when
running tests in the AutoTest.Net project with our own runner. If you
guys want to investigate the source is at
https://github.com/acken/AutoTest.Net. To get and use just pull, run
build.bat and then deploy.bat. All you need is in the ReleaseBinaries
folder. I'm running on a 32bit system.

If I can do anything to help you guys out just let me know.

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.
