Scala's simple-build-tool doesn't appear to run tests

Question

I've used sbt to create a project, configured it thusly:

val scalatest = "org.scala-tools.testing" % "scalatest" % "0.9.5" % "test"

I then pasted the example from ScalaTest into a file and ran "sbt test" to see if it was working. The file compiles, but the test is never executed.

As far as I can tell, this is as simple as it's meant to be. Am I missing something?

Answer 1

first off, I believe 1.0 is the correct version according to their website. My project/build/def.scala looks like this:

import sbt._

class Tests(info: ProjectInfo) extends DefaultProject(info) {
  val scalatest = "org.scalatest" % "scalatest" % "1.0" % "test"
}

Then do a sbt update, then a sbt reload (not sure the reload is necessary, but it doesn't hurt)

Now in /src/test/scala, use their example but also import scala.collection.mutable.Stack and sbt test works fine for me
