I can't get Spek to work at all. I added it as a maven test dependency and The IDE can't find anything from it. It's like it's not there.

Hey all! I’ve been using Spek happily with Gradle and it suddenly quit working. it appears that somehow the junitplatform plugin is using the M3 release instead of M2. When I try upgrading to M3 Spek fails due to incompatible class names.

I was going to look into patching it.

I submitted a Pull Request for the M3 upgrade.

@okkero can you paste your build file here?

Will do shortly

Avtually it will have to wait until later today...

Does Intellij support Spek ? as in can I run them like I run JUnit tests ?

@judd yes 🙂

@raniejade thanks, must be something wrong with my setup, I'm running IDEA 2016.2. I'll take a look around

btw, do you have the plugin installed?

it's not bundled into idea

just the Kotlin plugin, is their a spek plugin ?

think it’s this one https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/8564

some info on ranie’s github https://github.com/raniejade/spek-idea-plugin

Yeah, that's it.

aha, thanks!

And is it supported finding all the tests inside a package? I've been having issues with "Empty test suite" when doing that

And separately they all work

@jdiaz going to release a new version, which support that. Most likely this weekend.

New version of the intellij plugin is out, see https://github.com/raniejade/spek-idea-plugin/blob/master/CHANGES.md for the changes.

@raniejade My hero! I will update it right now!

It works, nice nice

Hi all. I'm trying to use Spek : I'm using spek 1.1.0-beta2 with junit-platform 1.0.0-M3. When running

gradle check

, I get this error:

Is it a known bug ?

@Ian has left the channel

@salomonbrys can you paste your build script?

@raniejade I found the problem: looks like overriding the Spek class with an abstract intermediate is not really supported. Now that my tests are implementing the

Spek

class and not my own

MySpek

class, it's working

It should support it as long as it has a no-arg constructor.

@raniejade So how am I supposed to do this?

abstract class CoolSpek(spec: Dsl.() -> Unit) : Spek(spec) {
    /* ...coool stuff */
}

@Suppress("UNUSED_VARIABLE")
class SomeSpecs : CoolSpek({
    /* ... specs ... */
})

@salomonbrys that should work hmmm. I'll investigate, thanks!
