VSIX Vitest Extension not providing UI button or recognizing tests

[mujevich]

Describe the bug

I had initially set up my project using the now deprecated Vitest Extension, and have now migrated to the currently supported version

My issue is that after migrating, my test no longer have the Play / Debug options next to them and the tests don't seem to be recognized. I'm still able to run my tests via the command line however.

I'm not sure how it would be possible to reproduce my local VS setup, outside of providing the vitest settings

I have the same issue. Can be reproduced with https://github.com/wundergraph/cosmo Open it from the root and navigate to https://github.com/wundergraph/cosmo/blob/main/cdn-server/cdn/test/cdn.test.ts

[mujevich]

Thanks a ton for that @StarpTech !!

I have a strong feeling this will become way better after #253 is merged.

Also potentially related to #285, when I restarted my app I did see a similar error

This should work in pre-release 0.5.0 and higher. Note that the extension now requires Vitest 1.4.0 or higher.

If you still have the issue, please open a new issue with a reproduction.

[StarpTech]

pre-release 0.5.0 is not available on the marketplace.

Hi, I tested pre-release 0.5.0 and it is still not functional. I also upgraded to vitest 1.4.0 and reload vscode

If you still have the issue, please open a new issue with a reproduction.

Why should we open another one if this issue has not been solved?

In your case, the problem is the monorepo structure. You define workspace configurations for your pnpm workspace, but you don't do the same for Vitest workspace - I would recommend adding a vitest.workspace file to improve performance of Vitest, at least: https://vitest.dev/guide/workspace.html

There are other issues at play that I will push the fix for (Released in 0.5.3), but I would strongly recommend adding a workspace configuration.

[StarpTech]

Hi, I have defined a workspace file but it still doesn't work.

export default ['controlplane', 'shared', 'cli', 'composition'];

[StarpTech]

It worked. I also had to install vitest in the root. Thank you.
