How do I manually create a *Test* source set (for *linuxCommon*)? Currently the *sourceSets* block looks like the following:
```// ...
sourceSets {
        commonMain {
            dependencies {
                // ...
            }
        }
        val linuxCommonMain by creating {
            // ...
        }
        @Suppress("UNUSED_VARIABLE")
        val linuxX64Main by getting {
            dependsOn(linuxCommonMain)
        }
        @Suppress("UNUSED_VARIABLE")
        val frontendMain by getting {
            resources.srcDir(webDir)
        }
    }```

Is there a way to create a source set that covers both source code and test code (for a platform common module)?

With Kotlin Native for example a module can be created that is based on a target (eg *linuxX64*), which covers test and source as separate modules.

it should automatically be the case that `linuxX64Test.dependsOn(linuxX64Main)`, which means it transitively depends on `linuxCommonMain`. is what you want a `linuxCommonTest` source set?

<@UF3V7CF4M> The *linuxX64Test* source set would be required to run the tests for obvious reasons. Looks the the Kotlin Multiplatform plugin doesn't support adding test libraries as dependencies (via the missing *testImplementation* function) :frowning: . Having a *linuxCommonTest* source set to cover the testing for *linuxCommon* is the plan, along with *linuxX64Test* being used as the test runner.

In the end the idea of having the *linuxCommonTest* source set was scrapped in favour of going with the *linuxCommon* / *linuxX64Test* combination.

Btw. since when can a source set depend on a source set? o_O

Ah, that's something Kotlin MPP specific, I see
