A problem was found with the configuration of task ':app:compileReleaseKotlin' (type 'KotlinCompile').

Hi!

I'm trying to set up pitest in a test project and I'm getting the following error:

• What went wrong:
  A problem was found with the configuration of task ':app:compileReleaseKotlin' (type 'KotlinCompile').

  • Gradle detected a problem with the following location: 'C:\Users\Me\AndroidStudioProjects\mutation_testing_android-master\app\build\tmp\kotlin-classes\release'.

    Reason: Task ':app:pitestDebug' uses this output of task ':app:compileReleaseKotlin' without declaring an explicit or implicit dependency. This can lead to incorrect results being produced, depending on what order the tasks are executed.

    Possible solutions:

    1. Declare task ':app:compileReleaseKotlin' as an input of ':app:pitestDebug'.
    2. Declare an explicit dependency on ':app:compileReleaseKotlin' from ':app:pitestDebug' using Task#dependsOn.
    3. Declare an explicit dependency on ':app:compileReleaseKotlin' from ':app:pitestDebug' using Task#mustRunAfter.

I tried to declare the explicit dependency but it didn't work.

Can you help me?

This is my gradle:

build.gradle (:app)

`plugins {
id 'com.android.application'
id 'kotlin-android'
id "pl.droidsonroids.pitest"
}

android {
compileSdkVersion 33

defaultConfig {

    testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
}

buildTypes {
    release {
        minifyEnabled false
        proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android-optimize.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'

}

    disable('AllowBackup', 'GoogleAppIndexingWarning', 'MissingApplicationIcon')
}

    unitTests.all {
        useJUnitPlatform()
    }
}
compileOptions {

    targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_17
}
kotlinOptions{
    jvmTarget = JavaVersion.VERSION_17
}

}

build.dependsOn 'pitest'
tasks.withType(Test) {

dependsOn(":app:compileReleaseKotlin")
}
}

build.gradle(mutation_project)

task clean(type: Delete) {

I am using java 17 and gradle-8.4-all

I don't know what it could be

[koral--]

Are you using the latest plugin version (0.2.21)?

[Linykerrm]

No, I am using 0.2.18

classpath "pl.droidsonroids.gradle:gradle-pitest-plugin:0.2.18"

Because I need java 17, gradle tools 7.4.2 and agp 8.4
