Running A Single Test File, Hardhat Finds No Tests

[JimLynchCodes]

Suppose I have some files in my project under the test folder

test/ - MyToken.test.js - MyHelperFunction.test.js - Foo.test.js

If I run npx hardhat test then it runs all the tests in all the files and everything works.

If I run npx hardhat test ./test/nonexistent.file.js then I can an error:

Error: Cannot find module '/Users/jim/Git-Projects/AppleTreeNFT-Smart-Contracts/packages/hardhat/test/nonexistent.file.js'

If I run npx hardhat test ./test/Foo.test.js then I get this output:

  0 passing (248ms)

When running any file I always get this "0 passing" message.

This is a bug because it should be running the tests in the file but it incorrectly runs nothing.

node v14.19.1

@JimLynchCodes this works for me. Can you tell me more about your setup? Are you on Windows? Which version of Hardhat are you using?

Also, just in case: can you try doing npx hardhat test test/Foo.test.js (that is, without the ./)?

Closing for lack of more information.
