neotest-vim-test

Neotest adapter for vim-test. Supports running any test runner that is supported by vim-test. Any existing vim-test configuration should work out of the box.

Requires vim-test to be installed.

It is recommended to add any filetypes that are covered by another adapter to the ignore list.

require("neotest").setup({
  adapters = {
    ..., -- Any other adapters
    require("neotest-vim-test")({ ignore_filetypes = { "python", "lua" } }),
    -- Or to only allow specified file types
    require("neotest-vim-test")({ allow_file_types = { "haskell", "elixir" } }),
  }
})

Issues

This is a simple wrapper around vim-test. There are several features lacking that more integrated adapters will have along with bugs that can't be fixed:

• No error diagnostics
• Performance issues
  • Tests are all run in separate processes
  • Has to communicate with vimscript for a lot of the functionality which requires synchronous code
• There may be false positives on what files are test files (e.g. all .vim files are detected as test files) due to how vim-test detects files.
• Multiple languages run in the same suite

This adapter should only be used if there is no alternative available for your test runner.
