Error with running test on ethers version 6.0.4

[bagdasaryanem]

Describe the bug When running yarn hardhat test on hardhat project, where ethers package version is 6.0.4, got this error calling ethers.getContract()

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create basic smart contract and create basic deploy steps
2. Create basic unit test, for example:

   
   const { assert } = require("chai");
   const { ethers, deployments, getNamedAccounts } = require("hardhat");

describe("TestContract", () => { let contract; let deployer; beforeEach(async () => { deployer = (await getNamedAccounts()).deployer; await deployments.fixture(["all"]); contract = await ethers.getContract("TestContract", deployer); }); describe("constructor", async () => { it("it tests", async () => {}); }); });

3. Execute `yarn hardhat test` 
4. See error

**Expected behavior**
Should not throw error and get contract

**versions**
 - hardhat-deploy [^0.11.23]
 - hardhat [^2.12.7] 
 - nodejs [18.13.0]

So hardhat-deploy-ethers is moving to be an extension to @nomiclabs/hardhat-ethers

you can try hardhat-deploy-ethers@next which does this and if the error persist then you better submit the issue in https://github.com/NomicFoundation/hardhat/tree/main/packages/hardhat-ethers

hardhat-deploy-ethers v0.4.1 is now out
