Will there be an "exploration and design" YouTrack issue related to the Testing Survey?

[Anton Yalyshev [JB]]

Hi Oliver! “exploration and design” YouTrack issues are usually dedicated to some potential solution/feature, or in rare cases, to a problem for which there is not even a rough solution in sight.
This survey is about user experience - I would say it’s a stage that goes before “exploration and design” (of a solution).

There is this Kotlin Multiplatform Test Framework Prototype that I'm currently working on, which I'd like to add to my survey's answers (it was not ready at the time I took the survey). It is a working prototype, based on my experiences with multiple test frameworks and helping to maintain Kotest. The repo's README also points to a proposal on a framework-agnostic API the Kotlin core ecosystem could provide to ease integration. Maybe you'd want to take a look.

Great, thank you, we’ll definitely take a look

Cool! Would be ideal if we could exchange ideas and work together on this topic. There is a huge potential to be tapped, simplifying the Kotlin test infrastructure and opening it up for better frameworks (either as part of the Kotlin distribution or as community offerings).
