List of unit tests disappears

[kx101]

Hi,
when working with VS2022 Test Explorer running C++ gtests against a Linux VM target
the list of unit tests disappears randomly, especially after code changes.
The only work around is to recompile everything which is a lengthy process.
This is annoying.

my environment:
VisualGDB, Visual Studio 2022 17.6.5, Linux Ubuntu 22 on VMWare.

Hi,
VS2022 Test Explorer randomly hangs.
I am testing and debugging C++ gtest unit tests.
Randomly the Test Exploer hangs and it is not possible to stop the session.
Sometimes a message pops up VisualGDB can’t connect to the debug target.
I have to restart the VM and Visual Studio 2022 to get it working again.

my environment:
VisualGDB, Visual Studio 2022 17.6.5, Linux Ubuntu 22 on VMWare.

Hi,

We are not aware of this issue. It can be caused by a VS bug, interference with another plugin or something else.

Please try checking if the problem persists on a clean project created from scratch. If no, please try to understand the differences between the clean project where the issue happens. It could be triggered by a specific setting.

You can also try recording a video showing the problem on an existing project – if it’s something obvious, we will point it out.

Hi,
i turned off all other VS plugins, no change.
I installed your v6 Beta version and that fixed the problem. The list of unit tests doesn’t disappear
anymore.
One thing I noticed with v5.6:
Just before the list disappears it pops up a message like “loading from cache” or so. It just
very briefly pops up and then the list is gone.
Anyways v6 Beta fixes the problem and continue working with that. Hope you have a release soon.
