root dir not being found

[igorlfs]

Hello,

I've been meaning to try this plugin. Today I gave it a shot, but I got the following error:

E5108: Error executing lua: ...re/nvim/site/pack/packer/start/neotest/lua/nio/tasks.lua:95: Async task failed without callback: The coroutine failed with this message:

While it looks like an error with neotest itself, other adapters work fine. So I'm guessing neotest-gtest isn't picking up my root dir properly (which is set by a compile_commands.json). There might have been a breaking change upstream? Actually, to make other adapters work, I need to uninstall gtest's. Any ideas?

Hi, this is a bug since the code should work without it, but as a temporary workaround could you please call require"(neotest-gtest").setup({}) in your init.lua. (see README.md - I just updated it). Please let me know if this works!

The documentation is a bit stale, but lately I did not have a lot of time on my hands, sorry :)

[igorlfs]

Indeed, adding require"(neotest-gtest").setup({}) fixes this issue, but now my tests aren't being found. Is there any structure my project should have, to ease test discovery?

[alfaix]

I don't think so, you can check https://github.com/alfaix/neotest-gtest/tree/main/tests/integration/cpp for a working setup. Your test files need to be named test_stuff.* or stuff_test.*

You can also supply your own is_test_file(path) function in config. The default one is here

You can also supply a custom root detection function, the default one is here

Okay, I tried to use the integration tests you provided, but I get ...lua/neotest-gtest/init.lua:122: Did not run tests: no tests selected to run. I'm also getting the same error after I renamed my own test files to fit the default function, so I think we're getting there. Any ideas?

If you're running more than one file, you're probably running into this

Sorry, it's WIP :)

Sorry, it's WIP :)

No problem 😅

Hey, been a while, should be fixed now. See README.md for usage.
