# neotest-vim-test

[Neotest](https://github.com/rcarriga/neotest) adapter for vim-test.

Supports running any test runner that is supported by vim-test.

Any existing vim-test configuration should work out of the box.

Requires [vim-test](https://github.com/vim-test/vim-test/) to be installed.

It is recommended to add any filetypes that are covered by another adapter to the ignore list.

```lua

require("neotest").setup({

  adapters = {

    ..., -- Any other adapters

    require("neotest-vim-test")({ ignore_filetypes = { "python", "lua" } }),

    -- Or to only allow specified file types

    require("neotest-vim-test")({ allow_file_types = { "haskell", "elixir" } }),

  }

})

```

## Issues

This is a simple wrapper around vim-test.

There are several features lacking that more integrated adapters will have along with bugs that can't be fixed:

- No error diagnostics

- Performance issues

  - Tests are all run in separate processes

  - Has to communicate with vimscript for a lot of the functionality which requires synchronous code

- There may be false positives on what files are test files (e.g. all `.vim` files are detected as test files) due to how vim-test detects files.

- Multiple languages run in the same suite

This adapter should only be used if there is no alternative available for your test runner.
