Question

I m sure someone has asked this but I can t find it Just upgraded to 5 0 3 and my tagging strategy to avoid running tests that need to start a docker container seems to no longer work looks like the tests are skipped but the listener still starts the container ```internal class AuctionSniperEndToEndContainerTest StringSpec tags Docker listener openfireTestContainer Paths get docker openfire perSpec ```

Rob Elliot · Answer

Where the tag is used like this ```import io kotest core Tag import io kotest core TagExpression import io kotest core TagExpression Companion Empty import io kotest core TagExpression Companion exclude import io kotest core extensions TagExtension object Docker Tag object DockerTagExtension TagExtension override fun tags TagExpression = if shouldRunDockerTests Empty else exclude Docker private fun shouldRunDockerTests = runningAsPartOfBuild private fun runningAsPartOfBuild = System getenv BUILD SYSTEM = null ```

Rob Elliot · Answer

```import io kotest core config AbstractProjectConfig Suppress unused read by reflection object ProjectConfig AbstractProjectConfig override fun extensions = listOf DockerTagExtension ```

sam · Answer

you shouldn t need Suppress unused read by reflection on latest plugin btw

Rob Elliot · Answer

sam · Answer

Ok

sam · Answer

Sorry that i missed it

Rob Elliot · Answer

NP thanks I haven t had a chance to dig into it further I m afraid At a personal level it s no big deal just a side project and even in that it was a convenience way to debug failing tests locally

sam · Answer

I ll try for 5 1 1
