A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

Trying to debug a test inside of a `ShouldSpec` `should` block. Test looks something like this:

```class MyTest : ShouldSpec({
  val foo = "bar"

  should("do something") {
     true shouldBe true // place breakpoint here
  }
})```
If I run the test using the Kotest plugin in debug mode and place a breakpoint at the `true shouldBe true`  line I don’t see the `foo` variable captured in the “Variables” window like I would expect.

I recall being able to debug this relatively recently so I _think_ this is a new issue.

Kotlin version — 1.5.30
IntelliJ version — IntelliJ IDEA 2021.2.2 (Ultimate Edition) Build #IU-212.5284.40
Kotest version — 4.6.1
Kotest plugin version — 1.1.36-IC-2021.1

Isn't that something related to the debugger rather than to Kotest?

Sometimes you can work around by assigning the var to a val before the line where you debug
