Is there a guide anywhere for using mockk and kotest together? I am trying to convert some tests that use @Mock etc... annotations with `MockKAnnotations.init(this, relaxUnitFun = true)`` and haven't found a good way of doing it yet. I have been using BehaviourSpec to implement the tests

[Mark Allanson]

I found the guide on kotest.io for mocking, which I guess means I have to abandon annotated mocks, which is ok and feels more natural anyway after changing things

[dave08]

Just don't forget to clear them, or use InstancePerTest mode...

[Mark Allanson]

Can you set isolation mode at the start of the Spec instead of at the end?

[dave08]

Yes. Either override isolationMode, or just use the dsl

[dave08]

Or you can do it for the whole project in ProjectConfig

[Mark Allanson]

or just use the dsl

The DSL? Which one there a a few kotest DSLs 😄

[sam]

so you can do

class MySpec : FunSpec({
   isolationMode = IsolationMode.Foo
})

And that var assignment can go anywhere in the body

[sam]

Or in project config for all specs at once

Thanks!
