- deebocan you refer to the parent / root project in a gradle submodule somehow? e.g. root = spring boot app, child1 = client for the spring boot app, and i'd like to start the app during a test, without any testcontainer hackery or such, just use @SpringBootTest(ParentApp.class) with something like `testImplementation rootProject`
- deebowhich seems to work in idea dependencies, but not for gradle itself
- deebogradle dependencies actually properly lists the dependency, but still can't find any classes
- ParaKinda but not really. Maybe.
- ParaI remember that + multimodules being PITA with Gradle, and then the space shifted, and I stopped caring and moved back to Maven.
- deebohmpf this is annoying, need to be able to test that the client actually works
- MikeBuxdeebo, how about integration tests?
- deeboah i think this is about the spring boot plugin, the child project is trying to use a -plain.jar version of it
- deeboyeah works fine when doing `testImplementation rootProject` and rootProject config has `jar { enabled = true }` so it builds both a plain jar and the spring-boot jar
- dreamrealdeebo: why are you not testing THE CLIENT
- dreamrealYou shouldn't be relying on a parent project to test a child module
- deeboi'm testing that the various implementations integrate properly with what ever the underlying version of spring boot / spring graphql / etc is, already fixed one issue with the test :)
