I think there's a bit of work to do to fix native and JS targets, and I guess moving Kotlin version ahead forces us to deal with that? I tried to dig into why Kotest 5.5.5, Gradle 7.6 and Kotlin 1.7+ is not playing well together. I think that JB has changed the gradle plugin at some point from doing a single Mocha invocation to doing multiple ones (perhaps to run suites in parallel?). The way Kotest for JS works causes our tests to run on the first invocation which kotlin-test is now using for discovery, so there's no teamcity reporter attached and the failure results in an exception (I guess the Gradle task doesn't expect failures on first invocation)

is there a specific way we have to build the main branch . In my case this file in kotest-framework for jsMain wont compile at all

I am working on a 1.7.21 upgrade for now

I've reverted it on master. If you pull that in I think it'll help @Imran/Malic

thanks !
