winget install --id nextest.cargo-nextestAbout cargo-nextest
A next-generation test runner for Rust.
What's new in 0.9.136
Added - Following up from the recently-added schema for repository configuration, nextest now also provides a JSON Schema for user configuration. The schema for the running version can be obtained by running cargo nextest self schema user-config. (#3351) Changed - The max-progress-running user-config setting no longer accepts numeric strings like "8" (an undocumented fallback). The supported values remain a non-negative integer (e.g. 8) or "infinite". (#3350)
