Hi friends! I have a test in my commonTest/ that relies on the kotlin.test framework. I have 4 tests that should have different behaviours when running on Windows and Unix. Is there something available in kotlin.test that I could use to skip the test if, e.g, running on Windows? Maybe something like JUnit's assumeThat . That way I could transform these 4 tests into 8 tests, 4 for each platform. 😊 Thanks!

You can use expect/actual to define a platform constant that can be used in @Ignore. Or just move the platform specific tests into the platform specific test folder.

Or only the platform validation logic.

Thanks @hfhbd! My original code had a System.getProperty("os.name") check that helped me choose different paths for Windows and Unix (e.g, C:/foo and /foo). I'll go with that. 😉
