Does anyone know why my unit tests testing coroutine stuff doesn’t actually ever stop running

[Abhishek Dewan]

is your android/jvm is fine ?

I had an iOS unit test hang recently. I think one of the libraries I was using wasn't using the right version of the coroutines library. I didn't need that library anyway so I removed it and my unit tests started working again.

@Mustafa Ozhan no the android one also hangs !

What is your runTest implementation for android ?

I can check this once I get off work and get back to you 🙏

If I understand correctly coroutines need scope to run. When the scope goes away it automatically cancels the coroutines. If you launch a never ending coroutines in your test, you can expect that it will never stop. you may need to cancel your coroutines job once your tests finish executing.

@Test 
fun test() = runBlocking {
val job = launch {
//your coroutine
}
delay(sometime)
job.cancel()

}
