truffle-assertions + truffle-hdwallet-provider + Test.sol > Error: the tx doesn't have the correct nonce

[SvenMeyer]

I can not install in this order :

$ npm install truffle-hdwallet-provider@1.0.14
$ npm install npm install truffle-assertions

[https://github.com/rkalis/truffle-assertions/issues/28]

If I install it the other way round, the installation succeeds ... , but then I get strange errors concerning wrong 'nonce' in my JavaScript based contract test (test/gallery.js) once I add a solidity based test contract (test/TestGallery.sol) when using truffle-hdwallet-provider (tested 1.0.12 and 1.0.14).

Steps to reproduce:

$ truffle develop

Another terminal :

$ npm install npm install truffle-assertions
$ npm install truffle-hdwallet-provider@1.0.14
$ truffle test --network truffle_localhost_HDW

testing using web3.version = 1.0.0-beta.37

I found out the I accidentally deleted the build path config within truffle-config.js ... and after reinserting it, this effect is gone and it's working again ... strange,but resolved now.

module.exports = {
  // See <http://truffleframework.com/docs/advanced/configuration>
  // to customize your Truffle configuration!
  contracts_build_directory: path.join(__dirname, "client/src/contracts"),
networks: {...
   }
