nunit-console.exe hangs after finishing test run

Question

We got a problem with NUnit 2.5.3: nunit-console.exe does not return after finishing all tests. The process hangs forever.

Example: All tests succeed, but it keeps doing something. Output:

Runtime Environment -

OS Version: Microsoft Windows NT 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3
CLR Version: 2.0.50727.3603 ( Net 2.0.50727.3603 )

ProcessModel: Default    DomainUsage: Single
Execution Runtime: net-2.0.50727.3603
.................................................................................
Tests run: 119, Errors: 0, Failures: 0, Inconclusive: 0, Time: 60,5217744 seconds
Not run: 0, Invalid: 0, Ignored: 0, Skipped: 0

It does however work with the Nunit gui version.

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Are you using a mocking/isolation framework? Are these new tests? Is there a specific test which reproduces it when it's executed alone? — Elisha, Mar 12 '10 at 15:35
No mocking/isolation. Tests worked with MSTest, we are switching to NUnit. No, this issue only occurs, when all tests run together. Each fixture on its own runs to completion. — Igor Lankin, Mar 12 '10 at 16:34

Any multi-threading? I've had issues with threads not completing correctly and causing this.

but all test finish successfully. Is it a TearDown method then? – Igor Lankin Mar 12 '10 at 15:27
Are you able to attach to the NUnit process when it's hanging and break? This may give you insight into exactly what the runner is doing. – Adam Driscoll Mar 12 '10 at 17:05
Thx all - problem solved. There were some issues with multi-threading and open sockets :) Using IDisposable properly solved the problem. – Igor Lankin Mar 15 '10 at 12:27
