PesterInterface is not Set-Strictmode v3 Safe about vscode-adapter HOT 8 CLOSED

From my perspective - both with the minimal test case included above, and with the tests that I've previously referenced at https://github.com/ziesemer/ad-privileged-audit/ - this is now working perfectly in the pre-release (v2023.6.1). Thank you!

This is unfortunately more than just an inconvenience. I spent many hours trying to figure out why my tests were not working within the VSC Adapter but were otherwise working with Invoke-Pester. Please consider that any code being sourced to place under test that includes setting strict mode will cause the tests to fail within VSC.

Here is a minimal test case:

BeforeAll {
	Set-StrictMode -Version Latest
}

Describe 'Tests' {
	It 'Should-Pass' {
		# This test should pass.
	}
}

@iRon7 understood, I was just explaining why it is this way today, but I certainly underestimated the number of people using strictmode (as well as didn't think it would even matter due to the nature of how pesterinterface works).

@iRon7 Can you test with the latest prerelease? I've run strict mode both in the Extension Terminal and in the standalone runner and your minimal test case now works fine.

Glad to hear, will close but can reopen if a test case comes up that doesnt work.

@JustinGrote,

@iRon7 Can you test with the latest prerelease?

Confirmed: prerelease version v2023.6.2 works fine now.
Thanks for the efforts

@JustinGrote,

Thanks for linking this case.

as strictmode doesn't really provide much benefit other than a lot more annoying runtime errors

I don't fully agree with this statement as it has helped me quiet some time with revealing simple typo's. Besides (just) for my tests I prefer to be as strict as possible as others who do use my scripts might have this simply switched on (as what in fact happens here)...

@JustinGrote,

Can you test with the latest prerelease?

I will try to find sometime this coming weekend.
