Tests not being run

[benedictleejh]

When I create a new project using gradle init --type scala-library, removing the RunWith JUnitRunner for the test, running gradle test results in no test output to the console, and the test report shows no tests having been run.

This is the build.gradle:

plugins {
    id "com.github.maiflai.scalatest" version "0.6-5-g9065d91"
}

// Apply the scala plugin to add support for Scala
apply plugin: 'scala'

// In this section you declare where to find the dependencies of your project
repositories {
    // Use 'jcenter' for resolving your dependencies.
    // You can declare any Maven/Ivy/file repository here.
    jcenter()
}

// In this section you declare the dependencies for your production and test code
dependencies {
    // We use Scala 2.11 in our library project
    compile 'org.scala-lang:scala-library:2.11.2'

    // We use Scalatest for testing our library
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.11'
    testCompile 'org.scalatest:scalatest_2.11:2.2.2'
    testRuntime 'org.scala-lang.modules:scala-xml_2.11:1.0.2'
    testRuntime 'org.pegdown:pegdown:1.1.0'
}

I'm on Gradle 2.1, and JDK 8

I think this may be a duplicate of https://github.com/maiflai/gradle-scalatest/issues/12 - please could you upgrade to Gradle 2.2 and see if the issue remains?

[benedictleejh]

I upgraded to Gradle 2.2.1, and it works fine. Thanks for the quick reply.

Perhaps noting somewhere that the plugin doesn't work with some versions of Gradle (maybe in the readme) might be helpful, as it would help people dealing with the same issue.

Any ideas if multi-module builds are supported? I have similar issue, where gradle test does not run any scala tests (I added id "com.github.maiflai.scalatest" version "0.6-5-g9065d91" to the list of plugins)

However, $ gradle clean scalaTest seems to be defined, but it hangs after:

:my-project:scalaTestConsole
Failed to created JLineReader: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: scala/tools/jline/console/completer/Completer
Falling back to SimpleReader.

Any ideas what can cause scala tests not to run with gradle test and why $ gradle clean scalaTest is hanging?

Thanks,

$ gradle -version

Hi,

I'm not aware of any specific issues with multi-module projects.

Gradle has automatically expanded scalaTest into the scalaTestConsole task, which launches a REPL with your test runtime classpath. I seem to recall that you need to launch gradle with --quiet and then you can enter arbitrary scala code for evaluation.

Please could you share your repository so that I can see if there is any obvious reason for tests not being run?

Thanks, Stu

On investigation from gradle init --type scala-library you need to do two things to use this plugin:

// add the plugin
plugins {
  id "com.github.maiflai.scalatest" version "0.6-5-g9065d91"
}

// add the html reporting dependency
dependencies {
...
testRuntime 'org.pegdown:pegdown:1.1.0'
...
}

Once you've done that it's important to run clean test otherwise gradle assumes that the previous run of the test task does not need repeating.

I then receive the following output:

:test
Discovery starting.
Discovery completed in 104 milliseconds.
Run starting. Expected test count is: 1
LibrarySuite:
- someLibraryMethod is always true (18 milliseconds)
Run completed in 223 milliseconds.
Total number of tests run: 1
Suites: completed 2, aborted 0
Tests: succeeded 1, failed 0, canceled 0, ignored 0, pending 0
All tests passed.

@maiflai Thanks for checking on this. I've tried similar experiment, only after creating an initial project I tried to add an actual scalatest, in src/test/scala/HelloSuite.scala and it was not discovered with gradle clean test.

Somehow a gradle project created like this does not play well with Intellij Idea, I'm still finding ways to make Idea import it correctly (setting classpath and dependencies properly)

[maiflai]

I've not seen that behaviour to be honest; I use Idea constantly and I've found it reliable recently. I think they fixed some things in 14 and I've since been able to use the plugin.

Are you on a recent build?

Closing old issue.
