Kotlin can use JUnit4 as it's test framework quite straighforwardly. Indeed this is the set up for the Kotlin tests. Moreover I can get this working for my codes. However the JUnit4 support for data-driven testing is not as good as that of TestNG. Kotlin should be able to use TestNG, but I cannot get the TestNG system to recognize the existence of the tests.
Has anyone got Kotlin working with TestNG?
Well that is weird. With JUnit4 I did:
Test fun x() { }
but with TestNG it has to be:
[Test] fun x() { }
I think the question here may not be why didn’t TestNG work, but why did the JUnit ever work.
Thanks for pointing out my lack of brackets, I am now a much happier bunny 
That's interesting and looks like a bug. Can you please send us a small sample where you can reproduce this behaviour: without brackets it doesn't work, but same code with brackets does work.
I believe it has something to do with package with the name “Test”…
Weird indeed. The absence or presence of brackets is just a matter of style
Hummm… this hasn't dealt with the problem. My initial enthusiasm was squashed when I relaized I was still using JUnit4. Now I am definitely using TestNG, all the code compiles but no tests are found.
Brackets not an issue per se, other factors led me to the wrong conclusion.
The problem I have is that I cannot get the TestNG runner to recognize test methods.
Can you post a zip somewhere?
I just ru the test for my project funKTionale and is working fine with MVN and inside IntelliJ
Could you fork my repo and test in your machine?
Oh FFS, I had Guice 3.0 instead of Guice 2.0 in the path.
I now feel like a bit of a ####.
So, does it work now? :)
Thanks for having proof that it all worked as it should, it gave me confidence that it was all my fault. Which was the balance of probability anyway. Having 3 → 2 it does now all work. Now I just have to find out how to get data providers working in Kotlin.
