atrium is for instance using this plugin: https://github.com/robstoll/atrium/blob/master/build.gradle#L62

so we don't have to include Junit and Spek dependencies ,this plugin sets it up

and then

gradlew build

would also run my all tests written in spek ?

my usecase is i want to run tests from cli and also specific tests from commandline + i have written tests in spek i am seriously not finding any resource to test from command line

exactly (as far as I remember), it runs all specs it can find in your project

if you want to run only some tests then you would need to write your own ConsoleLauncher. Following an example: https://github.com/robstoll/atrium/blob/master/misc/atrium-bc-test/build.gradle#L113

notice that I am using a custom engine and not spek, you would need to setup spek as engine

You probably would want to use a different selector than scan-path. See https://junit.org/junit5/docs/current/user-guide/#running-tests-console-launcher-options

something like this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9288107/run-single-test-from-a-junit-class-using-command-line ?

Thanks @robstoll i got the idea ,i am looking through into it

depends if you work with junit5 or junit4 but yes something like this

ok 👍 Thanks

My friend and I both have the latest IntelliJ with the latest Spek plugin (0.5.4). He has community edition, I have Ultimate. We’re both working on the same code base — same gradle file, same tip of master. When he right-clicks on a directory with Speks, he has the option to run them as test or as Speks. I only have the option to run them as tests (which causes breakpoints to not be triggered).

Any suggestions for where to go look what might be going on?

I can run/debug individual Speks via the little green triangle in the left of the text editor, but that runs them one at a time. If I want to run the whole suite of Speks, and have breakpoints work, I seem to be unable to do so.

@mkporwit I have community edition and can run all tests of a package for instance. Also all tests in src/test/kotlin. Yet, right clikc on src does not work. Might be that this works in ultimate edition. Hope that helps

@mkporwit can you provide a screenshot? Last time I checked running from a directory works.

@raniejade screenshot inbound. And yes, this should work. As I said, works in my colleague’s community edition, off the same git repo as I use. So. there’s some subtle config interaction which is preventing me from running from a directory.

@raniejade LMK if the screenshot loaded… Slack is complaining I’m out of space

Here’s a link to it on my flickr, in case Slack doesn’t show the screenshot: https://flic.kr/p/249baot

I see it, going to test with the latest build.

@mkporwit it works for me...

There should be a

Run Specs in <package>

option when right clicking

Yep.

There should be, like in my friend’s setup

hmmm, do you have any plugins installed? aside from the bundled ones.

I’m running latest 2017.3.5 Ultimate with 0.5.4 of the spek plugin

also have you tried re-installing the plugin?

I’ve got a bunch…

Anything in particular you’d be concerned with?
