Is there an example of kotest framework mpp setup somewhere?

I have that exact setup yet I'm getting

Caused by: org.junit.platform.commons.PreconditionViolationException: Cannot create Launcher without at least one TestEngine; consider adding an engine implementation JAR to the classpath

[Jim]

Can you try adding the engine-jvm dependency to your jvm deps and the engine-js to the js one? I noticed this on my project last week and thought it was something I had done. If that works for you we can track down what's going on

[Big Chungus]

is engine dep in commonTest not sufficient?

[Jim]

I thought it was but perhaps it's not, I'll be on my work computer in 30 to check my project

[Big Chungus]

Do I still need junit5 runner for jvmTest too?

[Jim]

I have that

[Big Chungus]

Nope, same shit

[Big Chungus]

What gradle plugin and lib versions do you use?

[Jim]

🤔 ok I'll check in a bit, I'm using 5. M2

[Jim]

I think gradle 6.7.1

[Big Chungus]

I'm on io.kotest.multiplatform:5.0.0.5 & lib:5.0.0.M3

[Jim]

Ok I'll bump to m3 and see if that's it

[Big Chungus]

Nvm, figured it out. There was race condition in my gradle scripts. Everything works now.

[Big Chungus]

Well not everything, nested testing in js is still not supported, unfortunatelly

[Jim]

Ah cool, do you not need the specific engines listed?

[Big Chungus]

No, just common is enough

[sam]

nested testing will never work on JS unfortunately, as the outer scopes in karma/mocha don't support async

[Big Chungus]

I see, thanks for clarifying. Would be good to have some table in the docs outlining what does and doesn't work on js, tho.

[Jim]

Maybe we need multiplatspec
