Question

Hey guys wave Does anyone know if it s possible to have kotest and junit5 tests coexist I have a project with kotest setup and I wanted to give junit5 a go in Kotlin but when I added ``` testImplementation platform org junit junit bom 5 7 0 testImplementation org junit jupiter junit jupiter ``` tests are not picked up by Gradle Do Jupiter and Kotest not like one another

sam · Answer

you should be able to use both together

sam · Answer

as long as jupiter is on the classpath you might have to do the include engine configuration that gradle provides

thanks so much for confirming this < sam> I ve had a close look at my tests and I missed the fact that `suspend` tests are not run by junit and I have to wrap them in `runBlocking` which is not ideal Thanks anyway slightly smiling face

sam · Answer

Ah ok Let me know how you think junit compares to kotest for kotlin tests

Krystian Rybarczyk · Answer

sure will do slightly smiling face Overall I think kotest is a great testing framework thanks a lot for all the effort writing and maintaining it < sam> My biggest complaint and the reason why I want to take a look at JUnit is the incredibly slow performance while editing although I do realise that this is probably an issue on the IntelliJ side I m in the process of filing a bug and still need to profile CPU usage but editing a large test suite over 200 lines of code is an incredibly annoying experience on a 2020 MacBook Pro 2 3 GHz i7

sam · Answer

It s intellij and generics

sam · Answer

It s also miles faster on 1 4 20

sam · Answer

And you can use annotation spec which is junit by another name

Krystian Rybarczyk · Answer

Oh I ve not thought about annotation spec good call thanks Will definitely take a look And will also check out 1 4 20 I m still on 1 4 10

sam · Answer

I was surprised at how much faster it is you don t need to upgrade your project it s the 1 4 20 intellij plugin that is faster

Krystian Rybarczyk · Answer

strange I can t see this update yet in 2019 3 thinking face maybe I need to switch to 2020 3

Krystian Rybarczyk · Answer

I ve just remembered what I miss in kotest again probably IntelliJ s thing not being able to run test suites from IDE

Krystian Rybarczyk · Answer

arrow forward icon disappears as soon as I extend AnnotationSpec

sam · Answer

do you have the kotest plugin

Krystian Rybarczyk · Answer

man facepalming no I don t Oh man you ve literally made me a happy Kotlin developer again smile I just need to take 1 4 20 for a ride slightly smiling face

Krystian Rybarczyk · Answer

wow you re right < sam> 1 4 20 is unimaginably faster Who would have thought wink Thanks again for all the insights I ll happily stick to Kotest tada smile

sam · Answer

I was super impressed when I tried the 1 4 20 rc because I was like what how is this so much faster

sam · Answer

It was never a kotest thing it was a problem with too many lambdas type parameters So things like arrow would grind to a halt as well

Krystian Rybarczyk · Answer

I ve only noticed massive slow down with Kotest as I ve not used arrow equally heavily sweat smile
