I have imported mockk library in commonTest -> shared module. There are no import errors in the test classes, but when I run the test I get errors like:

Unresolved reference: every
Unresolved reference: mockk
Unresolved reference: verify

in all places where i use mock library methods. What could be the reason for the errors?

example of my test with errors in console:

class DefaultAppPreferenceStorageTest {

    val appPreference = mockk<AppPreference>() //Unresolved reference: mockk
    val jsonService = mockk<JsonService>() //Unresolved reference: mockk

    val jsonKey = "key"
    val value = 1
    val stringValue = "$value"
    val defaultIntValue = Random.nextInt()

    val storage = DefaultAppPreferenceStorage(
        appPreference,
        jsonService
    )

    inner class PutJsonTest {

        @BeforeTest
        fun beforeEachTest() {
            every { jsonService.mapToString(value) } returns stringValue //Unresolved reference: every

            storage.putJson(jsonKey, value)
        }

        @Test
        fun testPutJson() {
            verify(verifyBlock = { jsonService.mapToString(value) }) //Unresolved reference: verify
            verify(verifyBlock = { appPreference.putString(jsonKey, stringValue) }) //Unresolved reference: verify
        }
    }

    ...
}

UPDATE Dependencies

const val mockk = "1.12.5"

const val mockk = "io.mockk:mockk-common:${Version.mockk}"

        val commonTest by getting {
            dependencies {
                implementation(kotlin("test"))
                implementation(kotlin("test-common"))
                implementation(kotlin("test-annotations-common"))
                implementation(ShareTestDependencies.mockk)
                implementation(ShareTestDependencies.coroutinesTest)
            }
        }

  • Can you share mockk dependency part of your common/build.gradle? Did you look at `Installation` section in https://mockk.io ? – ocos Sep 21 '22 at 11:29

    Add also `implementation("io.mockk:mockk:${Version.mockk}")` to your dependencies. Hope this solves your problem. Please check also Kevin's answer to understand why your IDE does not show errors in your editor. – ocos Sep 21 '22 at 17:23
  • but when i remove `implementation(ShareTestDependencies.mockk)` IDE shows errors – Sunbey13 Sep 22 '22 at 07:19
  • @ocos `implementation("io.mockk:mockk:${Version.mockk}")` helped me. Thx a lot – Sunbey13 Sep 22 '22 at 08:39

I see the mentioned errors (Unresolved reference: every and other) when upgrading from mockk 1.12.5 to 1.13.2. I can work around it by adding a dependency to mockk-jvm (instead of or next to the existing mockk dependency).

        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.mockk</groupId>
            <artifactId>mockk-jvm</artifactId>
            <version>${mockk.version}</version>
        </dependency>

The problem was addressed earlier (see https://github.com/mockk/mockk/issues/889) and assumed to be solved. Apparently this is not yet so in all cases.

If you are using KMP to build native targets (iOS, Linux, Windows, etc), mockk doesn't support native. It does support JVM and JS, and has a common source definition to support those 2 platforms. The IDE may not have an error because there is a common mockk definition (although I've never tried that).

Look at the test task that's actually being run. If it's for a native target, that's definitely what's happening.
