4.0.3 has been released

Are there any plans to, at some point, properly maintain https://github.com/kotest/kotest/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md and https://github.com/kotest/kotest/releases again?

Yes, the changelog is on my list to fix up this week

Great! Now the only thing I'm missing are the artifacts on Maven Central for 4.0.3 🙂

they're there

Indeed, interesting. I was looking at https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/io.kotest/kotest-core-jvm

that site is always so out of date

Ok, I just like mvnrepository.com for its search across multiple repos.

true

Good to know.

are you fully upgraded to kotest now ?

https://github.com/oss-review-toolkit/ort is, yes.

relatively smooth ? For such a big change.

Yes, besides bulk search & replace of imports I only had to do very few more rounds of search & replace for imports that moved.

It was a one off big change kinda forced on us. I liked the old kotlintest name, and I was using it before kotlin.test existed!, but the small amount of confusion generated was a distraction.

Ah, I was wondering about the story behind that name change. So did Jetbrains approach you?

No I don't mean forced on us like that. My conversations with Jetbrains were that they were very happy with the project. I mean forced on us in the sense that there was some small degree of confusion, so it made sense for one project to change, and kotlin.test can't really change as jetbrains use the kotlin namespace.
