Source local setup after the build completes about action-ros-ci HOT 4 CLOSED

May be something related to #822

from action-ros-ci.

Indeed, please take a look at that issue. tl;dr this should not be necessary, there must be something missing in the package with the custom message/service definitions (or possibly the other package).

I would recommend asking a question on Robotics Stack Exchange, making sure to include your CMakeLists.txt files and any other relevant file: https://robotics.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/ros. Feel free to post the link to your question here.

Since I believe that there is nothing to do here for action-ros-ci, I will close this.

Thanks for the info. Posting the solution here for anyone else.

I had the package that implemented the message and service definitions as a dependency in my test package's package.xml file but not as a test_depend. Once I added it to the test dependencies as well I was able to run the tests successfully without sourcing the setup.bash first.

Great, happy to hear you found the issue!
