Error: No tests with the prefix <testFunctionName>

[Renzo1]

I am currently following recent Cyfrin Updraft course where Patrick teaches how to use halmos. I am unable to follow the tutorial because I keep running into thesame error whenever I try to run a halmos test: Error: No tests with the prefix check_testMulWadUpFuzz`

Here is the project repo: https://github.com/Cyfrin/2-math-master-audit

Here is what the test looks like:

    function check_testMulWadUpFuzz(uint256 x, uint256 y) public pure {
        if (x == 0 || y == 0 || y <= type(uint256).max / x) {
            uint256 result = MathMasters.mulWadUp(x, y);
            uint256 expected = x * y == 0 ? 0 : (x * y - 1) / 1e18 + 1;
            assert(result ==expected);
        }
    }

Command to run the test:

halmos --function check_testMulWadUpFuzz

The complete CL output:

[⠒] Compiling...

[⠒] Compiling 21 files with 0.8.22

[⠰] Solc 0.8.22 finished in 3.44s

Please what could be the possible cause of this error?

Environment:

• OS: Linux Ubuntu
• Python version: Python 3.12.2
• Halmos and other dependency versions: Halmos 0.1.9

Never mind. For anyone experiencing this issue, remove your current installation, and reinstall it with pipx.

Had the same issue, reinstalling halmos with pipx worked.
