I’m in the process of migrating some tests from Spek to Kotest, and I’m running into a problem where gradle won’t execute my kotest specs when I have include the spek test engine. Has anyone ran into this before? Right now it seems I can either execute either spek or kotest but not both.

if you have both engines on the classpath, the gradle should run both. What's the error ?

[jlw]

> ./gradlew clean test --tests exampleSpec

No tests found for ….

[jlw]

when I run gradle test it executes all of the junit5 tests and spek tests but not any of the kotests

[sam]

and if you remove spek then gradle test runs the junit and kotest tests ?

[jlw]

yep

[sam]

so I wonder if spek is interfering with kotest somehow

[jlw]

seems to be that way - was curious if anyone had seen this before

[sam]

I know some people have ran both spek and kotest tests together, when they, like you, are doing a migration.

[sam]

what does your test config look like in gradle

[jlw]

test {
    useJUnitPlatform() {
        includeEngines 'spek', 'junit-vintage', 'junit-jupiter'
    }
}

[sam]

Try

test {
    useJUnitPlatform() {
        includeEngines 'spek', 'junit-vintage', 'junit-jupiter', 'kotest'
    }
}

[jlw]

didn’t realize kotest was an option - one sec

[sam]

I think if you don't include any, it will run them all

[sam]

but if you have includeEngines then it will only run those enignes

[jlw]

wow - that solved it

[jlw]

thanks!

[sam]

cool
