Extension Window Is Blank

[Axemasta]

I have been using this extension for months and use it almost daily. Really helpful tool for checking test coverage is adequate.

Today I noticed that the coverage window is not completely blank:

The test project is building and I am able to run all tests successfully. I tried creating another project with a class lib and test project and the same was true for that solution. The test project builds and all tests run / succeed and the coverage tool is blank.

I am on extension version 1.1, here is my Visual Studio For Mac Information:

Haha. That's what I wanna hear! Glad to know I can help make at least one person's dev experience a bit easier.

That's an interesting issue.

I'm guessing it persists even after you close and reopen Visual Studio? How about when closing and re-opening the Coverage pad?

[Axemasta]

Yes I have tested it after completely closing vs, I have closed the pad and reopened and even tried moving it around. I also tried reinstalling the extension.

[Axemasta]

I have good news, after the latest update for vsmac the coverage extension appears to be working!

🥳🥳🥳

Any tips on debugging the issue if vsmac breaks the extension in the future? 😁

[ademanuele]

Ah! Interesting.

Most likely what happened then is that I built the extension with a more up to date version of Visual Studio than what you were running.

I had never seen VS not load the extension before tbh so I was lost for debugging this as well.

That's good to know for the future. 😀 Thanks for the feedback!
