Hey all = D

I saw a repo under the kotest org: kotest/quarkus-example -- the repo description says that "kotest doesn't fully support Quarkus yet, this is a test repo"
Does anyone happen to know if there are actually problems with it, or if it's just not officially been sanctioned. Would love to use kotest in Quarkus 😃

Quarkus does funky stuff so the idea is we have a junit 5 rule adapter and just use that.

It's probably not quite there but wouldn't take much to complete. Someone volunteered to do that work but I guess real life got in the way, as happens unfortunately 🙂

[Gavin Ray]

Ahh got it, that's what I had thought since I saw that Kotest is built as a JUnit5 runner and Quarkus does all it's wild transformations on top of JUnit5, so I thought maybe it wouldn't be an issue since Kotest piggybacks there

[Gavin Ray]

I'll give it a try using the examples in the repo, will check to see if/how well it works 🤞

Ah I think I get what you mean -- the JUnit5 rule adapter remains to be built?

[sam]

It's there, I think we just need one more part of it

Gottt it -- thank you. If I had the skills I would offer to try to pick up this PR, I think I might need a bit more time spent with Kotlin and probably a bit of familiarity with the kotest codebase. But it's an exciting feature!

[sam]

Should be included with 5.0
