w: Runtime JAR files in the classpath have the version 1.2, which is older than the API version 1.3. Consider using the runtime of version 1.3, or pass '-api-version 1.2' explicitly to restrict the available APIs to the runtime of version 1.2. You can also pass '-language-version 1.2' instead, which will restrict not only the APIs to the specified version, but also the language features

how do I make kotlin 1.3 work? or heck, even 1.2… no matter what I seem to do it seems to end up with this error

[gildor]

Thils is not related on Kotlin version

[gildor]

See, this is some error of Scripting, not version etc (it's just a warning about version, you can ignore it)

[gildor]

I see that you use script (kts) instead of regular Kotlin file (kt) is that intentionally?
If you use kt everything should work.
If you have some script based test runner, I believe you need jar with ScriptDefinition to make it work

[xenoterracide]

actually when I figured it out, it's because spring boot (having 1.2 forced with gradle having 1.3?), also the kts thing that you mentioned... got used to typing kts with gradle scripts

[gildor]

Yes, for Gradle for sure you need kts, but according to your error message you use kts file in tests
