NoClassDefFoundError after updating to 1.9.0

[jansorg]

Describe the bug In a multi-module Gradle project, I'm sharing test classes with sub-modules:

        // in a sub-module
        dependencies {
            testImplementation(project(":", "testOutput"))
        }

testOutput is declared like this:

// in :
    val testOutput = configurations.create("testOutput")

    dependencies {
        testOutput(sourceSets.getByName("test").output.classesDirs)
    }

Expected behavior I've been using this successfully with 1.8.1 and earlier.

Tests, which are located in a submodule (not in :) and which use one of the shared test classes of : are now failing:

Environment:

• OS: Linux
• Gradle IntelliJ Plugin Version 1.9.0
• Gradle Version 7.5.1

It would require you to move your code in a way you don't like, but I did add support for Gradle testFixtures a few releases ago, that is how we share test utils across subprojects and may fix your issue, though I haven't tried 1.9.0 yet

We've also faced with this problem in IntelliJ Rust plugin after updating to 1.9.0

[hurricup]

And perl.

@jansorg Can you please verify this issue against the latest snapshot version of the plugin?

[jansorg]

@hsz I'm not seeing this anymore with 1.10-SNAPSHOT.
