test runner shows 'canceled' dialog

[robaho]

Something has broken in a recent release.

When I run a Java test case, the following dialog appears and remains until a press the Cancel button. The test case runs fine, and the results appear correctly in the test tree.

I also get a notice in the lower right when this happens:

VSCode Version: 1.95.3 (Universal)
Java Extension version: v23.0.1
MacOS 13.7.1

Thanks @robaho for pointing this out ! , you can resolve this issue for now by following the steps below :-

1. Navigate to the Run Debug View in the side panel.
2. Create a launch.json file for the project. More on launch configurations
3. In case you don't see any configuration object with attribute "name": "Launch Java App" then use the
   Add Configuration... button appearing in the bottom right corner . Among the list of options you get when you click the button select Java+: Launch Java App(Reference image). Save the launch.json file.
4. Now select the configuration named Launch Java App using the Configuration dropdown in the Run and Debug view . You should see Launch Java App in place of Launch Program with reference to this image .
5. Now proceed to run your test.

Currently this issue is arising because while running the test the configuration selected in the Run and Debug view is used . (Perhaps in your case the Attach to Process was selected .) In future release we will fix this .

Let us know if this works for you .

I had the drop down set to 'Attach to Process'. Changed it to 'Launch Java App' and it worked. Thanks for the work-around.

I don’t think you should close the issue. I have a work around but this is less than ideal and should be fixed.
