Hey I have been playing with Spek and I can't run them for Android project.
Spek seems to have general problem with JUnit4 runner, so I am not sure how can I use it for Android project?

Here is my sample project
https://github.com/igorwojda/migrate-java-tests-to-kotlin

I would be grateful if some one would take a look and give some fix hints or share working Spek on Android project

[adambl4]

Do you have specific error?

[rafal]

here's part of my module's build.gradle

[rafal]

testImplementation "org.jetbrains.spek:spek-api:$versions.spek"
    testRuntime "org.jetbrains.spek:spek-junit-platform-engine:$versions.spek"
    testImplementation "org.junit.platform:junit-platform-console:$versions.junit_platform"
    testImplementation "org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-api:$versions.junit_jupiter"

[rafal]

spek        : '1.1.2',
            junit_platform  : '1.0.0-M4',
            junit_jupiter : '5.0.0-M4'

[rafal]

please not that this is done inside Android Studio project, but within non-Android module

[rafal]

As official Spek's website reads: "Android integration tests is currently not supported" http://spekframework.org/docs/latest/#_android

[adambl4]

what error do you have?

[igor.wojda]

@adambl4 Error is Cannot add jps/kotlin-jps-plugin.jar from plugin 'Kotlin' to external compiler classpath: home directory of plugin not found

And then framework crashes

Exception in thread "main" org.junit.platform.commons.util.PreconditionViolationException: Could not load class with name: igorwojda.com.presentertest.feature.ProfilePresenterTest_Sample1_Kotlin_Spek
	at org.junit.platform.engine.discovery.ClassSelector.lambda$getJavaClass$0(ClassSelector.java:71)
    ...

[igor.wojda]

@rafal are you sure it's about module, not the test 'claspath'? Tests are in Android module indeed, but I have they are in scr\test, not src\androidTest, so they are runned loccally

[rafal]

Frankly, I'm keeping my Android module so small, that I've no need for unit tests there

[rafal]

Either way, ensure that you are using those versions of JUnit (later eg. -M5 does not work with Spek 😞 )

[rafal]

Oh... and don't forget to put this in your top-level build.gradle

buildscript {
   dependencies{
      classpath "org.junit.platform:junit-platform-gradle-plugin:$versions.junit_platform"
   }
}

[igor.wojda]

I tried all the suggestions and I am still stuck. Basicly I got Test framework quited unexpectedly error`

I am starting to think that there maybye something wrong with my IDE/SYSTEM

[igor.wojda]

@rafal or @adambl4 can you please improt this project and try to run ProfilePresenterTestSpek or CorePresenterTestSpek
https://github.com/igorwojda/migrate-java-tests-to-kotlin ?

[adambl4]

can do bit later

[jk]

you also need this bit:

junitPlatform {
        filters {
            engines {
                include 'spek'
            }
        }
    }`

[adambl4]

what is your Spek plugin version?

[rafal]

run :app:compileDebugUnitTestJavaWithJavac

[rafal]

and then run your Spek tests

[igor.wojda]

@adambl4 Spek plugin ver 0.4.0, now updated to 0.4.1

[igor.wojda]

So, moving forward.
1. @rafal app:compileDebugUnitTestJavaWithJavac - this did not helped
2. @jk Truied to add those junitplatform configurations to main project gradle file

apply plugin: 'org.junit.platform.gradle.plugin'
junitPlatform {
        filters {
            engines {
                include 'spek'
            }
        }
    }

but is fails with an error

Error:(31, 0) Declaring custom 'clean' task when using the standard Gradle lifecycle plugins is not allowed.

[jk]

add it to the module containing spek tests

[rafal]

I've checked out your code. Synced gradle. Run compileUnitTest. And then I've run spek test. All tests executed and passed

[igor.wojda]

@rafal Hmm curious... both in 'app' and 'core' modules?

[igor.wojda]

Witch platform?

[rafal]

ProfilePresenterTest_Kotlin_Spek (it's inside tests in app module)

[igor.wojda]

Thanks for update. I'll take closer look at it.

[igor.wojda]

@rafal ProfilePresenterTest_Kotlin_Spek seems to be working now indeed. Can you run tests in CorePresenterTestSpek ? (core module)

[jk]

these were the changes I had to make to get the tests working https://github.com/igorwojda/migrate-java-tests-to-kotlin/pull/1

[igor.wojda]

It was Long day, but is seems everything is working Fine Now 🎉🎉🎉

Thanks a LOT guys 🙂
