@sam I am trying to upgrade to latest version of kotest but found that version 4.2.2 is not available for all the dependencies, for example kotest-runner-console-jvm .
What will be your recommendation? Should we use 4.1.3 for all the kotest repositories ? Currently we use 4.1.0 for all of them. Thank you

I don’t know the specifics, but I faced similar issue and I discovered the console artifact has gone away completely.
What do you need console-jvm dependency for?

[atara]

When I tried to remove it, things failed to compile. But now I am trying again to clean build.

[atara]

It was used by the plugin for Intellij @mateusz.kwiecinski

[atara]

Looks like I need to do few updates

[mateusz.kwiecinski]

I linked the issue for Intellij plugin above. It seems like you just have to update the Intellij plugin to the recent version that does not require console-jvm dependency anymore

[atara]

Doing so right now. Thing is some tests failed when I ran mvn clean verify. But let me first solve this plugin thing.

[atara]

tests started to fail 😞

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: kotlin.collections.CollectionsKt.maxOrNull

[mateusz.kwiecinski]

If I’m not mistaken maxOrNull was introduced in Kotlin 1.4.0 so the error message suggest you’re using older version which kotest 4.2.2 does not support anymore 🤷
Solution: Upgrade Kotlin to 1.4.0

[atara]

All green now. Thank you so much @mateusz.kwiecinski!!

4.2.2 shouldn't use anything from 1.4

[sam]

I will double check but the api version flag is set to 1.3

[sam]

As for console dep. Yes gone away. On feature releases i put this info into the changelog and blog
