# kotest

[Peter]

having a little trouble getting tests to run in sub sub project, eg: https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/intro_multi_project_builds.html#sec:multiproject_build_and_test … it would be :services:shared:test

[Peter]

i can see them being compiled to /services/shared/build/classes/kotlin/test/   … they are located in /services/shared/src/test/kotlin (edited)

[Peter]

all other tests runs fine … /services/ itself has no tests

[Peter]

using ./gradlew -i --rerun-tasks :services:shared:clean :services:shared:test reults in SUCCESS: Executed 0 tests in 1.7s

[Peter]

in my root project i have

subprojects {
    tasks.withType<Test> {
        useJUnitPlatform()
    }
}

[sam]

Is this kotest you're using ?

[Peter]

yes 🙂

[sam]

JVM or multi platform

Take a look at this JVM project of mine that uses kotest https://github.com/sksamuel/hoplite

[sam]

You should be able to use the gradle files, or get inspiration from them

[Peter]

do you have any sub-sub-projects in there? don’t see any at first glance

[sam]

no

[sam]

sorry I didn't spot that

[sam]

I don't know why it would be different. Maybe subprojects {} only goes one level deep?

[Peter]

yea i even tried add the same subproject stanza to :service but no dice

[wasyl]

I have sub-subprojects and haven’t had issues with Kotest

[wasyl]

You can try ./gradlew -i --rerun-tasks :services:shared:test without clean task, you don’t really need it with --rerun-tasks anyway

[wasyl]

(btw you want to use

tasks.withType<Test>().configureEach { }

to benefit from lazy task configuration)

[Peter]

yea just making sure it’s not skipping due to cache .. but none of the permutations works 😞

[wasyl]

yeah --rerun-tasks alone makes sure there’s no caching or up-to-date avoidance. Are you sure you’ve added proper dependencies as well?
I’d suggest that you configure Kotest in the services/shared/build.gradle directly until you can run the tests, and only then start extracting the build logic

[Peter]

configure Kotest directly? is there something more than what i currently have:

dependencies {
    api(project(":p8e:proto"))

    implementation.let {
        it(Libraries.ProvenanceCoreProto)
    }

    testImplementation.let {
        it(Libraries.KotlinXCoRoutinesTest)
        it(Libraries.Kotest)
        it(Libraries.KotestAssertions)
        it(Libraries.KotlinLogging)
    }

    tasks.withType<Test> {
        useJUnitPlatform()
    }
}

[wasyl]

🤔 I also have junit5 dependency applied

[Peter]

hmm.. is that not transitively included from

const val Kotest = "io.kotest:kotest-runner-junit5-jvm:${Versions.Kotest}"

[Peter]

i dont have it declared in any of the other sub projects and no problems there

[wasyl]

Anyway, by

configure Kotest directly

I meant to have entire project configuration in the subproject’s build.gradle directly. In one of the previous snippets you mentioned having subprojects { } in root build.gradle file, that’s why I suggested to not use root build.gradle but just make sure you have all the proper configuration in the subproject build.gradle

[Peter]

let me throw it in for posterity

[wasyl]

But anyway if the tests work in some other subproject but not in that specific one then it’s difficult to say. You can try comparing the dependencies (./gradlew :workingProject:dependencies vs ./gradlew :notWorking:dependencies) for example

[wasyl]

Check that the paths are the same, maybe kotlin source sets aren’t set properly? (I used to put everything under src/java/ to be sure)

[Peter]

ok thanks - let me double check those a bit
