@Vampire as the spock module author, would you please mind looking into this dep update issue?
If I am looking at it correctly, this is only used in Spock module via the EmbeddedSpecRunnerWrapper
and I frankly don't recall why we needed that and what was the issue :)
The EmbeddedSpecRunnerWrapper
is just a work-around for some Groovy quirk I didn't grasp otherwise.
The point is the EmbeddedSpecRunner
that is coming with Spock and is used in the tests of the Spock module.
The EmbeddedSpecRunner
uses some JUnit Platform TestKit classes, but as 98.7 % of the users should not need to use the EmbeddedSpecRunner
, it is not included as a normal dependency.
So if you want to use the EmbeddedSpecRunner
, you need to provide that dependency and in a version that is compatible.
Previously it was Spock 2.1-groovy-3.0 which uses JUnit Platform 1.8.1, so JUnit Platform Testkit also was 1.8.1. You now upgraded to Spock 2.3-groovy-3.0 which uses JUnit Platform 1.9.0, so you should probably also use JUnit Platform Testkit 1.9.0, with that the tests work perfectly fine. But this PR is trying to update it to 1.10.2 and it seems there was some breaking change in that version.
I think you should configure Dependabot to always bump Spock and Testkit together and then care for the correct version being used. And if Dependabot cannot be configured like that, switch to Renovate. If you insist on using such a bot, at least Renovate is the better choice. :-)

Ah, I see, that makes sense. Thank you! I'll change it to 1.9.0 and add a comment.

I added dependabot as there was nothing so far and having some tracking of dep updates is useful (so long as it doesn't spam too often). I think dependabot has some "upgrade together" notion but that wouldn't really help here as you wouldn't know what JUnit Platform to link to the Spock version. But I might easily be missing some options, I for sure don't have a black belt in dependabot-fu :)
Bumps org.junit.platform:junit-platform-testkit from 1.8.2 to 1.10.2.
